Sat 17/3/2012, 5.30am Brisbane river at West End.

Paddled to Oxley Creek - around the bridge pilon 18.3km.  Time 1:36!...av heart rate 145. av cadence 88.

was a great run.  gave Jeff a 5 min head start in his TK1 and tried to catch him.  got to within 50m 2km from the finish but Jeff put the power down and i couldnt close the cap any more.   bettered my previous time for this run by more than 10mins!

conditions were good with the Bris river at high tide.  i was trying a Jantex Gamma medium paddle.  quite liked it but was a bit slippery in the water - mainly due to my not being used to it i think.  the shaft is a bit thinner than i'm used to as well.  fingers on my rights hand got lock jaw.
