Got to participate in the 37th annual Matsudo Canoe Race on the Edogawa River in Chiba. It was cold morning at first, but the sun came at right in time for the beginning of the race.
It was super fun, but very chaotic as there were 324 different boats on the water starting at the same time. I even got clipped and turned sideways during the middle of the race.
I ended up finishing 171st overall with a time of 47 minutes and 50 seconds. I think I took 13th out of 24 sea kayaks.
Total Distance: 4.87 miles (including warmup and waiting for the start
Duration: 01:22:44
Average Speed: 3.44 mph
Max Speed: 7.51 mph
