When i started paddling this summer, I sent an initial goal of getting to Concord Park, which is about a 12-mile roundtrip journey from our house. This morning I made it, and I took this photo of sunrise at Concord Yacht Club to prove it.
It took me about three hours to do the entire trip, and the last mile or two was pretty rough. But overall, I’m convinced I can go even farther if I pace myself right.
Lara seemed duly impressed that I’d made it to Concord Park, but when I told her my next goal was to get to New Orleans, she winced. So I think I’ll rein in my ambition and shoot for Lenoir City, which is about 14 miles RT from here.
