Two weeks ago there was no training at all for me because my wisdom teeth were removed. The dentist says that exercise of any kind is unwise after such major oral surgery. I had 3 stitches and the left side of my face was swollen.
Last Monday was my first day back on the water and I felt a little tippy. I'm hoping that part of the reason for this was because I'm using a new paddle, I was using a Brasca VII split shaft and I've now changed to a Brasca IV fixed shaft. Check out their web site here "Braca Paddles"
When I started back it was just time on the water without the gym work and runs and today it was back to adding both of these things to my training sessions.
The weather is starting to get colder in the mornings and it doesn't get light until around 6.30am now.
Next week Robi has entered us both in the Australian Nationals which will be held in Adelaide. He's entered me in 2 age groups for the competition, experience and as a gauge as to how I'm doing.
I've raced most of the girls that are competing in the under 18 K1 events so I'm really hoping that I can better my times and get some better placings.
This week is a taper as we leave for Adelaide on Tuesday.
I'm looking forward to competing.
