With 365 days until Tokyo 2021, today on What On What’s Good, I am here with Team Canada surfer Cody Young. There is something about going to the beach. I am not sure if it’s the sunlight, the smell of the saltwater, or the waves crashing against a nearby rock or sand. Perhaps it’s the memories of boogie boarding as a child, walking up the golden sand beach, or simply relaxing and reading my favorite book. The beach is my stress relief. It makes me calm. The environment is so peaceful. On beautiful days, you can’t help but enjoy the infinite blue sky with fluffy white clouds while watching surfers riding the waves in the backdrop. I have always been a big fan of surfing. For the first time in my life, I tried it on my honeymoon. I have to give props to all the surfers out there because when I tried surfing…well…at least we had fun.
