Well, that was fun…and challenging!

I was a kayak volunteer for this morning’s Cedar Island Swim- a Tim Kerr Charities event.  It’s a 5K swim starting at the Avalon Yacht Club, south along the main channel to the Avalon Anchorage Marina (end of 21st Street), east along Sunset Drive and 20th Street, north along Ocean Drive, and then back west along 7th Street with the finish at the Yacht Club.

The NE winds were blowing- gusts up to 20- 25 mph.  Made for some big “waves” in the bay, and major resistance when heading north along the Ocean Drive segment.  Impressive endurance by the swimmers!

Next week I’m back INSIDE the Avalon Community Hall as a registration volunteer for the TK Race 😉
