Back on the water

Last Monday, I attended OC6 practice with the FCRCC women. It was a light practice - 10 min segments - which was perfect for my first time out. The last time I paddled was last September for the Day of the Long Boat race. For this practice, we paddled around False Creek for about 50 mins. It was not too cold; the water was calm and there was a full moon. A beautiful night for paddling.

Two days later, my back is still feeling sore and stiff. But I’m happy to be paddling again. The first time out is always the hardest but now that that’s over with, I can just keep going.
