2012 Green Race by nicktroutman | Nov 9, 2012 | Featured Post, Whitewater | 0 comments Well the 2012 Green Race has come again. The Green race is always the first weekend of November, and it is my last event of the year. This year I got to head up a couple days early to get some practice in my new Karma creekboat. In the end I didn’t get quite as much practice as I was hoping, being that water didn’t run everyday, and when it did it was an hour of water at best. On Saturday the water came on time and a lot of it with 50% more flow than I had ever raced before. The extra flow definitely made me a took nervous being I had never paddled the river at 12 inches on the gauge. My start time was near the end of the day so I was able to watch almost everyone, though quickly I regretted being a spectator. I watched more carnage in the 2 hours prior to my run than I have ever seen before. There were people swimming left, right and center, people running gorilla upside down, backwards, rolling off the lips. It was insane to watch, and it definitely didn’t give me the confidence to want to go race it myself. Though amongst the carnage there was also a lot of great lines, including 2 of the Dynamic Duo runs, and Dane and Pat’s backwards runs. Watching a handful of people nail the line and be in total control is what helped me get back into the mindset of going for it. 3…2…1… go! I was off, cautiously heading downstream. I knew all my lines like the back of my hand, but I was also running the river at a flow I had never paddled. I kept my cool and nailed all my lines, and made it to the finish line safely, honestly that is all I could have asked for after witnessing the massive amounts of carnage. We ended the day with an awesome awards and party and many newly broken race records. Next year I will race again, though I am not so sure whether or not I will watch anyone before my race run. Here are the final times.
