Larry's in Hawaii right now for the Molokai solo race. He sent this pic - I think that's the China Wall behind him. Marisha and I stopped along this stretch when we were in Hawaii. The water was MUCH bigger that day and as we looked out over the churning waves I said, "I don't think I will ever race in this."
Boog and Schro are also there and it'll be interesting to see how these guys do considering they can only paddle half of the year and that's on lake-sized conditions. Their competition has been paddling (year-round) on the ocean since they were zygotes.
Larry didn't arrive in time for all of the warm-up races but Boog was 10th with a 3 second lead over Derek in 12th (of 18) in the solo warm up on Friday, while Larry and Schro were 21st (of 81) in the relay on Saturday. However, they combined for the 6-man, 8-mile race on Sunday - and won. The crew was called CC & Diet Coke - nice nod to Canada and rye. Anyway, all this netted them some cash - everyone wins in Hawaii.

I'll post results as they become available. It sounds like the forecast for the race is not favourable at this point - 3 foot waves - but apparently the shore break off Molokai is over 7 feet which could make getting off the beach a little tough.
