fitness paddling: exercise, train, race by kayak & canoe

Jeremy Rodgers:

I was hell bent on breaking course record of 1:05 which I did set by a composite tandem K2 set back in 1999. Hanging Lake was no longer a flowing river this year as Shoshone Dam was functioning as usual. Cfs was about 1600 or medium to low. None of the surprise drops from last year were encountered.

I believe that Jeremy paddled his JKK Supernova multisport kayak and Mike Lesnik - WSBS X-par Missile. Andy Howell is a South African marathon paddler transplanted to Denver this summer. He was paddling a Fenn surf ski.
