V: Immediately I couldn't help but notice how warm the water
was and the unnaturally blue/green color. Everything moved so quickly from
unpacking to warm up and racing our hearts out along with other teams. I
couldn't wait to get back in the water to race!
DF: What do you like about dragon boat racing?
V: Community. DieselFish is the kindest group of people
you'll meet and everyone enjoys helping one another. It’s a great way to be
active if you like water sports. I like the intensity of the practices too. I
have zero experience paddling—I still have a long way to go—but the water is
always calming and so is knowing you have a great team to grow with.
DF: Why did you join DieselFish?
V: I wanted something to get my butt off the couch and
experience the Bay Area (been here less than a year)! I had a good feeling it
would be a great way to meet new people and I wasn’t wrong. One look at the
DieselFish and I knew I had to try it.
DF: Way to go, Valerie! You did great. We can’t wait to see
what comes next for you in your dragon boat journey.
