Kayaking session #1


This past Friday I did my This past Friday I did my first kayaking training session.  The first trainer led kayaking session won’t be for a few weeks so I decided to rent a kayak and go out on my own.

My boyfriend Jason was kind enough to come out with me so I could train on a two person kayak; the same one my team and I will be using during the Adventure Challenge.

I sat in the back and practiced my steering with the pedals.  Kevin (the teammate I’m kayaking with) doesn’t know it yet, but he will be sitting in the back and dealing with those pedals come race day!

Jason and I were out there for about 1.5hours; which was enough time for me to get a good handle on those pedals.  Next training session I hope to be able to start doing some drills and working on strength and speed.

Until then!
