March 30, Training begins...



OK, Cochiti Reservoir isn't a particularly interesting place to paddle, but the choices here in northern NM are limited. After sore shoulders following the first hour of paddling, the body has adjusted pretty well, and I've paddling the last 3 out of 4 days. Otherwise, time is spent weighing and packaging food and a lot of logistical details.

I expect to leave Santa Fe on April 26, and start paddling out of Anacortes, WA around May 4, 2007. We'll see how well the schedule holds up over the last few weeks of preparation...
