Yesterday was boat control, and today was the team leaders' meeting. It is all coming together, and I am getting quite excited. Almost there!
The purpose of boat control is to weigh the canoes/kayaks and review the uniforms, equipment, and canoe for logo compliance. The IOC is very strict about how many, how large, and where the manufacturers' logos are.
Our C-1 ended up being "exactly" 16kg, which is the minimum. For good measure, we had to add 4grams. Wouldn't want to be dq'd for something we had control over. There was doubt about the size of "GUAM" and the Guam seal on the uniform being too large. Fortunately, this was resolved at the team leaders' meeting this morning. Supposedly, the country name and flag/logo can be of any size. I hope the volunteers at check in realizes this!
Well, I've got the bib number for Sean. It's all for real now.
His first event, 1000m, will be tomorrow at 4pm. Can't wait.
