First time to sit behind a pacer during pool training. A lot of the seniors were absent so it was a good opportunity to sit closer to the front and observe. The paddler in front of me is one of the most muscular on the team.

I can say that I feel I have improved compared to previous pool trainings. I don’t stop half way during a program. My only issue is that I’m experiencing the paddle slip from my hand, so I have to do better at maintaining the grip.

As for leaning forward I can do more, as one of the co-captains said to me. The pool water is heavier but I think I’m getting the hang of it.

Overall good training this evening.
