My perfect Saturday starts with a paddle in my hands and DieselFish by my side.

Practice was challenging today. Just the way I like it.

Coach had us work on endurance drills and practice races. Again. And again. And AGAIN.

It was exhausting. But every drill made us a little stronger.

After the last race of the day, I was gassed. I looked around and noticed my teammates were gasping for air, too. That’s when my benchmate gave me a high five.

It’s moments like this—exercise, struggle, and teamwork—that make me feel truly ALIVE.

After all that hard work, we rewarded ourselves with giant bowls of pho at Phở Hà Nội.

The broth was rich. The noodles disappeared fast. But the company was even better.

We yapped about our upcoming races, vacation plans, and families.

Because dragon boat racing isn’t just about getting faster. It’s about building friendships that last long after practice ends.

This is my perfect Saturday.
