My first Surfski Race

On Sunday 6th, I headed down to Rhoose lifeguards to take part in 2012 Surfski Race, a race that has been running for 30 years.

The conditions were perfect and it was great to get out on my ski so close to home. The course was an 8km loop along the coast and back.

Having not had much practise lately in my ski, I had fears of capsizing so decided to wear my wetsuit. Lucikly it was not needed, but this meant that I was sweltering hot.

It was great training for my Devises to Westminster bid next year!
