So this afternoon is my first paddling race. Most likely my first and last. And since I am the alternate on the team I most likely won’t ever get in the boat. Which honestly is fine with me. Since I don’t much like boats anyway. The good part is that I got out, trained in a boat with my team, experienced the resulting back and shoulder aches and got some sort of real experience that now allows me to fully and honesty say… Ok some boats are not that bad. Small canoe styles boats with a float on one side to prevent tipping. The outrigger kind we race. Those are not miserable. I still think that all other boats are miserable for now.
Anyway this afternoon at 1pm I am going to the race, and (unless someone else on the team is inured or they make us steer our own boat) I will stand on the sideline and cheer my team. Wish us luck.
Oh and I get a team t-shit.
