I made it down to Florida without incident and am now situated at Debbie Pages house approx 6.25km from the Pines via the canal system. The weather is perfect and water calm so great paddling conditions.
This morning we passed several members of the Italian team on the water, my g*d they were sooo strong, fast , and all around intimidating but it was really cool to see them paddle. It really gave me something to shoot for.
For snow, water, or ice one factor is constant....H2O. I have found fun, adventure, inspiration, passion, solace, new beginnings and friendship while skimming the surface of H2O on cross country skis, skates, in kayaks and canoes. These posts are the never ending adventures brought on by the H20FACTOR and the pursuit of an Olympic dream.
