Meet at Waterway 18 at 2:00 for 2:15 launch. Off the water by 4:15pm
Waterway 18 is a small pocket park NE of gasworks and a short distance south of the Sunnyside boat ramp. Park on the grave strip north of the road.
We will paddle a loop around Lake Union at a Brisk pace (3.7 knots). If you want to increase your effort, consider brining a drogue to tow behind your boat.
Conditioning series events are intended to get people out on the water to develop strength and endurance. A secondary goal is to offer regular outings, particularly through the winter.
The venue may be any location. However, paddles that are lower overhead - less travel, simpler logistics - will facilitate regular participation by people in Seattle.
The main focus is steady forward paddling.
