As the Indoor Rowing News balefully stares at its reflection in the mirror and ponders whether to pay 30 pounds for a small pot of Clinique's All About Eyes or stick with peepers that resemble boiled sweets set in crepe paper, we often wonder where all the time went. Similarly (a ha!), we were somewhat taken aback to realise it's rolling around to Ranking deadline time again.Anyway, rubbish intros aside, this year's closing date is April 30th. You can find entry forms at http://www.therowingcompany.com/v4/ranking.htm or, alternatively, if you're registered on the On-Line World Ranking as British, your best times as of the 30th will automatically be transferred across.This year, for the first time evAH, we'll be having the 500m as a Ranking event, meaning that there will be six individual events in total (500m, 2,000m, 5,000m, 10,000m, half marathon [21,097m] and full marathon [42,195m]) along with three team events (half marathon, marathon and 100,000m). You've still got three months to get a full house of distances under your belt so get yourself a-cracking.To join the On-Line World Ranking, visit http://www.concept2.com/sranking/home.asp
