Prague Dragon Boat Club

Yesterday 9th July we were hard training for the upcoming races in Purkarec. The boat was full and it happened that the the non-racing members stayed out of the boat. Normaly we will sail another boat to take all the people but this time it was necesary to train the crew for the race.

But there was enough space for our dear visit - Karin and Mitzi - two girl paddlers from Jaxs Fire Dragons, from Jacksonville, Florida.

Training was hard. Several 200 meters races, 500 meters and also one race for 1 km with there turn that make your head a little turned :-)

Everybody made it, everybody survived and trained well. The girs from the Jaxs team were excited and they sent to us the very evening following lovely messagy:

"Thank you!

Hello everyone! Thank you so much for allowing us to paddle with you today. You are a wonderful team! Good luck on Saturday in your race. Please come and paddle with us if you are ever in Jacksonville Florida! It was so nice to meet you!

Paddles up!
Karin & Mitzi"

And now some pictures from that training:
