Thursday night Outriggers

Out in the big boat again, the afternnon storms didn't materialise which is fortunate as we were able to get out on the bay as a result. Paddled out into a fairly solid northerly bouncing over swells copping a few in the face even though in seat 2! Had to work though a few technique adaptations as good habits in the K1/C1 are not good in the outrigger its more of a boofhead stroke and the paddle being fairly simple in design works differently.
The run home was more fun and sigificantly quicker, chasing runners / swells fairly intense periods of effort.
All up over an hour of fairly hard continuous paddling, good resistance training was very tired, woke up on couch at 12:30 that night hardly able to move....so tired......looking forward to loosening up paddle tomorrow night with the boys.
