my very first race for SAFSA. high expectations, rather high confidence.
our greatest nemesis were Mountbatten. we knew it would be a tough fight. but we thought we could retain the title. despite the effort, desire, we failed to secure a Gold, and had to settle for Silver.
are we really lesser than them? does having that many Nteam paddlers make a difference? why is it a club team overseas beat intimidating, results producing national teams then? we were good, but they were better.
this feeling sucks. i'll remember it, take it, and shove it up my next opponent's ass.
I will not settle for a Silver. the next SDBF, WATCH OUT.
