SaTina is having some issues posting to the blog so I'm posting her latest update for her here:
4:49 pm Thursday Macau time
2000m race results
Wasabi GMX 8th place
Wasabi Master Women 6th place
Wasabi GM Women 3rd place. - and they looked amazing - I couldn't be any prouder of them.
Most of the GMX women also raced a 2000 on one of the women's crews. A grueling way to spend the day in this heat. Today was the first day since we have arrived that we have experienced full force sun without the blessing of overcast clouds and rain.
Wasabi participated in the opening ceremonies. Each country took out a boat holding their flag on an 8 ft. pole. We then did a little parade of nations for the peoples in the stands. You will be proud to know that Wasabi was the only USA team on our boat (of the 3 USA teams in Macau) and that we sang the national anthem not once, but twice while on the course.
Tomorrow the GM's mixed and women race the 200m races. The masters women have the day off.
Wasabi Paddling Club is a competitive dragon boat and outrigger canoe paddling club with locations in Portland and Nehalem Bay, Oregon.
