Warm up then 10 x (2 mins hard, 2 mins easy). The wind has finally died and it wasn't raining so despite the intervals it was actually pretty pleasant being on the water for the first time in a while! Last week we paddled around a seal and today I paddled through a group of penguins. I'm sure it won[t be long until I bump into an iceberg.

Oh my aching arms. Did the total length of the winter challenge course in 4 laps from the DSS into choppy swell, gusty headwinds, and darkening skies. It's really hard paddling on choppy water in the dark - so fear had me getting a wriggle on for the last lap. I finished last of all the paddlers tonight but a) I was the only girl and b) a few people piked after 3 laps. pikers.
Someone went for an unplanned swim - happily it wasn't me.

stupid weather. am sick of it.

as expected the weather was even worse than yesterday - this time I took my radio as I wasn't convinced I wouldn't die of boredom doing more laps of Browns River. Yesterday I was by myself on the water, today I saw six other paddlers.
