I did an Alpha Laughing . A short but fun session at the Pit. Pit Crew only it seems as many struggled to get away from the indoor warmth or the ski fields.Tongue out Despite the cold, lack of Any match fitness , I'm happy with the session as I went very safe with the setup. Even wore a few kg of lead just to increase a bit of stability. Turned the walk back into a fitness session thou Tongue out Ado looked smooth as usual despite an even longer rest period between sessions. Hopefully our Northern Pit Crew brothers have had a great session in the warmth.

Hard yakka. That's what sailing here is like now.

 

Best part was catching up with a good mate.

 

Bloody freeezing, gusty, slow. The dunes have totally killed it. If you can get a top 10 second run it's pure luck. I didn't bother with lead, as that would have just made it harder slog, although Craig found a few helpful.

10 years ago this would have been a 43-44 5 x 10 session. No worries. Cool
