Paddle 43:23 [3] 10.0 km (4:20 / km)
Seem to be over my tiredness after loads of sleep.
Actually a k3 tt tonight. With Corel & Alistair. We went hard from the start and pushed the last few laps after getting into a good rhythm. Some say it may be the k3 record!

Paddle 2:32:02 [3] 32.02 km (4:45 / km)
Gauteng river k1 marathon champs... Basically from as high up as you can paddle on the klip.
I was feeling buggared after yesterdays race, so wasn't keen on paddling this morning, especially with the cold conditions.
The race started with a 200m portage to spread the field out, i got to the put in about 8th, but go in my boat 2nd and got onto front bunch comfortably... Sad there for about 4km's with 5 other boats until i had a swim and a biggish drop.. I lost contact with the top guys there. Luckily they all decided to portage a rather big rapid called devils toilet bowl, which I successfully shot making it back up to Alex and Kelvin in 5th-7th place... I was still feeling pretty tired but hung on through some pretty technical sections with nice rapids and tight channels... eventually losing the sprint for 4th to Alex R around 4.5min of the lead.
Paddle a Gara GP2, so much better than my current river paddle, blades are smaller and more through the water a lot better... And they are made by Hank (newly crowned double world marathon champ)!

Chilled run with Janneke from Dunkeld, thankful it was chilled as I'm still feeling th long O.
3 PM
SUP 1:15:26 [3] 9.86 km (7:39 / km)
Emmies 10km SUP race. SUP racing is a lot harder than I thought... I raced on a starboard 14 ft x 23", one of the faster board around, having just learnt to turned properly this week. I had a good start in about 6th place, trying to hang onto two waves of regular SUP paddlers from durban, eventually realising that I was working way too had. I started to take major strain from lap 4 with 6 more to go. Ended about 9/25-30 paddlers, not too bad considering the limited time on the board and good fun.
