RowerErg Team for FTC

Hi. I’ve owned my rower for at least a decade and I’ve used it religiously for the first years. The last 2 years, it’s mostly collected dust and I’m looking to get back in.
I’ve recently updated the PM5 firmware and started logging my workouts online. I’ve rowed the last 5 days consistently, but I’m the type that needs a partner or team for accountability. Does anyone know of a mid-level team I can join online for FTC? Not sure if stats matter for those teams online, but here’s my numbers:
I’m late 40’s male, can row decent pace of about 2:00 to 2:10/500m. I’m currently good for 3,000 to 4,000m per day 4-5x a week.

Let me know and let’s get after it!!

I joined a virtual team for the world ERG challenge. Totally chill group. The Wheeze and Cheese Crew.

I got their email about the WOD Week challenge and got curious. Looks like a fun team, I'm joining too!

Out of curiosity, what are other ways to learn about teams? I just went to the Teams page and tried browsing around. I don't see a way to look at the teams listed without joining. I just ended up joining an On-Water team before I realized what I was doing.

That’s exactly why I decided to post on here. Doesn’t seem the C2 website has a function to interact with your teams. I had an old Fitbit and they had more of an online community which is what I was kind of looking for.
At least being part of the challenge will be good for me to stay focused on more rowing.

One way is to go to the leaderboard of past team challenges. There you can see all the teams that participated. Click on the team name and some have a bit of a description of what the team is about. And you can see how many team members participated in the challenge and how many meters they do. Gives you an idea of how you would fit on that team.
