Spring Racing Season Has Officially Started…at least in the Southwest

Fresh off our first race

Fresh off our first race

My team (Southern California Scullers) and I kicked off the start of spring with a quick weekend trip to Tempe, AZ for the Desert Sprints. In short, I entered 3 races end ended up top 3 in each of those events. I got bronze in the Men’s Masters 1X, silver in the Open Men’s 1X, and gold in the Open Men’s Quad. I’m happy with my results since I was racing  open weight (There was no lightweight category at this race) and the guy who beat me (who is also my teamate [pictured above]) has 40 lbs of muscle on me and was a former national team member of Croatia.

First race of many this spring, more to come in the future hopefully.

Bronze, Silver, and Gold. One of every color!
