Kayakers do it rapidly, then roll over and do it again.

Tonight night saw the resumption of our Tuesday night paddling. Six of us met at Rick's on the River and launched around 6:45. Although the winds were picking up, we decided to head down river to pass the downtown area and maybe loop around Harbour Island. Jessica and Corey were on flat sit-on-tops and decided to break off around the University of Tampa campus and Jason's shoulder was starting to bug him right around the mouth of the river so Jon and I decided to make it a nice quick paddle around the island while he turned back. Though my arms were getting a little tiring, it was nice to be able to keep up a good pace and heart rate whereas a lot of the group paddles seem to go a bit more slowly when trying to keep together. At first I wasn't sure if I wanted to go, but I figured that being a bit tired is no excuse to not exercise and I actually felt energized soon after starting. The conditions were really nice and I had fun. This weekend I might be going to the Ultra Music Fest in Miami, though it is not 100% certain. It seems like a fun time with a massive amount of music, so if I go it should be fun.
