“I WANT THERE TO BE MORE PEOPLE OF COLOR IN WHITEWATER KAYAKING, BUT IT’S A LEGACY SPORT.AS A NEW PADDLER, SOMEONE HAS TO INTRODUCE YOU TO KAYAKING AND LITERALLY HOLD YOUR HAND AS YOU DECIDE IF YOU WANT TO STAY IN THE SPORT.”
Adam Edwards finds delight in doing hard things, physically uncomfortable things. On his 33rd birthday, he celebrated by hiking and running 33 miles. When we first started dating, we goaded each other into training for our first marathon with only six weeks to do so. We trained in the Pacific Northwest winter and raced in 84-degree humid Bahamian weather.
