Usually the guy’s do a Morning run around the tail or hellbender & then breakfast afterwards

If there’s Bacon involved, I will find a way to be there... I guarantee it...

10 days off... I think they are going to miss you... They may have trucks stacked up deep when you get back there...

Haven’t thought much about it lately; but your muscles have memory & it would come back if I started again

I was a pro canoe racer for many years in Michigan and had me some fair sized forearms and a good taper to my torso.

I do not think that is coming back...

Yes. I was in that twice. Got an 8th once. Another time we were in 5th and at a portage my partner snapped a leg running down the backside of a dam. Got a DNF then.

I have paddled over 25000 miles though overall... and we were a consistent 64 strokes a minute team....

That was my life for about 8 years

If that doesn’t keep you in shape I don’t know what will !
I was always in Oscoda in September salmon fishing on the weekend the race was in town. And let there be no mistake, that is a hell of a race !

Yes, you had to be ready for that one... it started at 9 pm with a 2 mile running race to the waters edge to get in your canoe and then it was 120 miles downstream nonstop to Oscoda. You had to portage 5 dams during the night. If you were really good you could finish by 11am the next morning.

It is such a big race that teams from all over the world come to race it. Usually about 60 canoes start but only about 50 actually finish. It is pretty tough. My best time was a 14 hrs and 47 minutes for an 8th place.

Last years total prize purse was over a $1M

Back then I had 6 canoes at a time that I alternated training on. I don't have even one now, but I have 5 kayaks...
