200 Meters

Gang Green has completed our first day of racing...all 200m...all as hard as we could paddle. We are now the proud recipients of our first Bronze Medals in Korea. The awards ceremony was an amazing experience and we are back in the hotel, showering speedily to get ready to go and take part in opening ceremonies.

The next goal is to take 'em in the 500m races and hear the Star Spangled Banner when they raise those flags tomorrow afternoon.

Missing our friends and family and our Gang Greenies back home.

We all feel so honored to be here...so much fun it hard to wrap our minds around it.

More on the opening ceremonies later...and pics =)
