Carrington gains gold

reports:

The golden glow is back on 's Olympic campaign thanks to another fabulous canoe sprint triumph for Lisa Carrington on Tuesday ( NZ Time).

Smoke on the and with a golden hue off it, Carrington is now a double Olympic champion in the fast and furious canoe sprint they call the K1 200m − and there was never really any doubt about it as she extended her unbeaten streak in the event at the global level to 13 regattas.

A great victory. I recall her first gold medal. I was at a packed bar in Martinborough watching her race and when she won the place went crazy.
