Racing the Dragon

by chrisk 25. July 2012 18:11

Paddles raised -- paddlers frozen in breathless anticipation. The starter blows and 20 paddles sink into the water. Pull! Muscles strain to move the water, to move the boat. Faster. Faster. The boat rises up. Now it’s race pace. Rotate shoulders, thrust back and legs into every stroke. Steersperson yells from the back. Drummer yells from the front. The in-betweens grunt and strain in hopeful and perfect unison, the fire in the dragon’s belly. Push, raise, twist, repeat.The dragon boat glides faster, in absolute rhythm. Unbeatable.
