The kayak races that immediately pop into my mind as the most memorable in 2016 were two completely new ones to me, and the James River Rundown 100-miler (I did the 40-mile version last year.)
I enjoyed and amazing year kayaking on some great waters and look forward to expanding my paddling horizons even more in 2017.
If you know of a kayak race or event on the East Coast you think I should hit, let me know.
