Still trying to squeeze the last drops of daylight out of the evening. We had another brilliant sunset thanks to the eastern wildfires. Worked on start sprint intervals for top end power tonight. Two sets of 5 for 30 seconds with adequate rest between. Developing power is useful in all sorts of situations, not just racing.
I recommend starting sprints on your stronger paddling side. My first two pulls are a little shorter, followed by increasingly longer strokes. I like to get my lower hand a bit lower on the paddle shaft while bending more at the waist, pull a few strokes, then slide up one handwidth, repeat a few strokes, and then up again until I'm at my normal paddling position.
