I think the novelty of being here has slightly worn off, training has upped a pace and everyone knows they have to up their game to get through the next 2 weeks. Rest has never been more important, so tomorrow we are having a sleeping workshop (no we aren’t aloud to sleep in it!) Our coach doesn’t think we are resting enough and making it compulsory we all sleep for an hour in the day!
The next two weeks are a real test if we can sustain the training and give every session 100% even if we are tired. I am finding the paddle sessions the hardest because we still aren’t entirely stable and it’s so frustrating trying to apply technique when you are still trying to balance the thing. Extra sessions on the kayak Erg seem to help and also being reminded if you have a bad session just make sure the next session is the best one you have done yet. Positive thinking and some visualization gets you everywhere!
