Jury duty

Waiting around in jury duty. So far they've shown that inspirational video that they tend to show when they want to get people to do something they know no one wants to do. Honestly it worked decently well on me p, I almost wouldn't mind if I had to serve. Almost.

Paddling

Our paddling Ironman season ended a few weeks ago. It ended in a bang. We've been medaling in every race we've been in up to now. ( 2x 1st and 2x 3rds ). The last race of the season was Iron Champs here in Mission Bay, San Diego. We had a really good chance of doing well, it was home water, we knew the course, and we were rested. Unfortunately in our hurry, the rigging on Maho'a was done incorrectly, ( the front 'iako's shim was backwards, causing the front of the Ama to be lower than normal). This plus the bad advice SCORA gave ( hug the rocks? Really? ). And some pretty bad conditions ( turbulent water + small channel + way too many canosed ) contributed to a Huli ( capsize). We got out of it ok, there are some crazy pictures that I can repost later.

Now we are winding down our sprint season as well. Up next is 9-mans. I won't be racing because my swimming just isn't good enough for me to be able to jump in and out of the boat. Maybe next year.
