Hello. I am back. Sorry for not posting for a long time. I have been rather busy with my training. I have decided to post more about my CCA instead of soccer. Sorry if I disappointed you. >.<
Anyway, my CCA is canoeing. It is an elite sport in our school. This year I am in the C division team. I will be rowing K2 during the competition. Today I will give a brief introduction about canoeing. :]
Basically, in our school we canoe, kayak and dragonboat. We do everything! K2 stands for Kayak 2. 2 means that there are 2 people in the boat. C1 stands for Canoe 1. Simple? :D Last year we got silver medal for dragonboating. It was a fantastic achievement because it was our first time participating in it.
What is canoeing? Canoeing is not all about moving your paddle on the boat. One of the most important factor is balance. Without balance, you cannot even sit on the boat. Besides balance, we also need muscle endurance. We have to paddle long distances therefore muscle endurance is very important. Muscle strength is another important factor. How are you going to paddle fast without muscle strength?
Land fitness. A very very important factor too. We will not be able to complete long distances with stamina. Therefore it is very important.
With these, I am sure you all will have a brief idea of canoeing. Next I shall post about the different type of boats. Byebye!
