My First Race Day

Giving the Thumbs Up after Swimming in our Swim Fest! 
Every Wednesday at Keeners, we do race day. This Wednesday was no exception. The day started out with some great starting drills for the beginning of the race. After those drills, we headed up to McCoys and divided into teams. Once we were split up, we headed to the start. The first race consisted of ferrying across satlers rock, where we had to touch Deuce's boat. After that we had to run the Satlers punch, and do the Hero ferry to the  Corner Wave eddy. While Going down Satlers, I flipped over and lost the race- the worst part is I ended up in the Football Eddy, on the wrong side of the river! LOL.

 The second race was down the Lorne. We had to boof, touch moby dick rock, and then ferry across to touch the river right wall. I finished with a time of 1:06, despite being sucked back by the waterfall below the boof.

The third and final race was down the first part of coliseum. It was a fierce, free for all 8 ball race. It consisted of other Keeners trying to flip us over. Sadly, I got worked in the last hole, but at least I didn't swim this time!!

The day ended with surfing, and an all out swim war where we all made eachother swim. It was an awesome day!
