::Cze Cze Czech it Out::

Here are some pics from today, thanks to Vekassy Balint, Magyarország. Köszönöm sepen. (Thank you in Hungarian)

I had a really good race, but I came in 4th place.  I wanted to practice something different, and it went really well, so I'm stoked and ready to race Duisburg next week!

I am pictured in the first photo paddling hard in the last 100m, and in the background is my friend Maximilian Benassi from Italy who I share a birthday with, and who also might have the best haircut in our sport.  Bap bap Italiano.

MARK OLDERSHAW!! A Burlington native and my Burloak homeboy since the mid nineteen-nineties won his C1 1000m race today beating World Champion Menkov from Uzbekistan.  Effing right bro.  That's me in the above picture trying not to fall in the water while giving him a congratulatory positive-touch.  Gold Medal What!?  Also in the news today is the C2 of Gabriel Beauchesne-Sevigny of Trois-Rivieres (Three-Rivers) and Andrew Russell of Dartmouth (the city of lakes, and a downtown core).  They won a Silver Medal in the kilometer, AND qualified for the C2 200m final.  Heck-ya Canoe Boys... throwin' down like a rodeo clown.  That makes no sense.  Anyways congrats to my friends who did awesome and SEE YOU IN DUISBURG!!!
