Impossible just became Possible

By about the middle of the camp making team and going to europe seemed impossible. Until today. During fulls I paddled really well and didn't think about beating anyone except myself. Each run was about making the small things better, not my time. And it all turned out that on my second run i was 116% of Micheal. My third run I was 120%. Then off my third run, 112%. If you take our two best times and take the percents. Im 110%. Thats team. Thats Europe. This really lifted my spirits and self confidence as a paddler. It gave me an early notification that I could do it. Although everyone is extremely tired, everyone is extremely tired, meaning that even if we were fresh I can do what he can do, just a bit slower. The new goal is to stay positive and just believe in myself.
P.S
Connor your comment on my last post made me pee my pants laughing. Im excited to come home and see you guys to.

Missin home.

Great, Adrian! Your Grampa says to be careful about dating Aussie girls. He did it once and she's still calling to shots and telling him what to do!.
Love, Grammo
