Had an awesome weekend chairing the board. Saturday was a solo 6k- and by solo i mean i was the only thing (human at least) in the ocean between Ettalong, Box Head, Barrenjoey Headland and Umina point. small 1-2 ft wave on the odd occasion down towards Umina but mostly just a flat run. The afternoon was spent hanging out with the future leaders of SLSCC at the final event for the 2010/11 15-17s leadership program. Good evening of activities run by the SLSCC member services team ensuring that my Sunday morning training session was just that little bit more difficult!
Started the morning with a pretty brisk 4.5 k run with Jason tucker along the Esplanade before heading out on the board with JT, Whitey, and Shawry. We headed down to Umina in surreal conditions- glassy, rainy, overcast conditions with some eerie light. Spent the morning catching waves doing ins and outs in front of Umina SLSC until a weird 2 minute pulse of wind came along and put an end to the little waves for the rest of the day! All up it was another 4 k paddle.
My knee still hurts. And this annoys me.
Back to the leadership program for the rest of the morning including a fun "amazing race" around Umina- My team won and i wont hear any different!
To cap off the weekend, this afternoon i jumped on the board again and did a leisurely paddle down to Umina with Zac Wilkins and Shelley Smith. 2.5k finishing just as the big thunder storm started rolling in over OB. impressive lighting effects.
