Top ten signs that you’re a Hardcore Dragon Boater:

This poem has been around forever but I just love it.

10. After a meeting at work, you form a line outside the boardroom and high-five everyone as they file out.

9. Brother’s wedding or the Dragon Boat Festival? Why, that practically answers itself.

8. When stopped at an intersection, you see a car creeping over the solid white line and yell, “man in the red Ford “back it down or you’re disqualified!”

7. You have calluses on your ass and palms the size of quarters

6. When running with your friends to catch the last train home from work, you yell “series in 3*2*1″.

5. You are starting to resemble the body shape of a gorilla.

4. You know what a heart attack feels like already.

3. You argue with a 90 year old lady who is sitting in the middle of the bus, claiming that you always sit in the ‘engine room’.

2. After a bout of lovemaking with your significant other, you say ‘let it run’

1. You have finally found something that smells worse than your hockey bag…PADDLING SHOES!

** You know when, I’ve been in the sport to long: WHEN I was giving birth I was breathing like your at a start and I even was doing the start calls (in my head) until a nurse told me I can stop breathing heavily….you have a baby girl. :flower:
