It has been two years since the last ECA Canoe Marathon European Championships was held in Decize, France. The pandemic washed away last year’s competition, and this year the championships will be organised in Russia. Due to the unstable health situation the number of participating countries in Moscow is lower than usual.
Organisers of the 2021 ECA Canoe
Marathon European Championships in Moscow did everything to prepare another
excellent canoeing event on the Krylatskoye Rowing Canal, place where the 1980s
Olympic canoe sprint and rowing events were held.
Unfortunately, the pandemic and the
current health situation impacted the participants list. Athletes from ten
countries are now on the list, following the recent withdrawal of Spain. One of
the strongest teams in canoe marathon decided a couple of days ago to follow
the recommendations of their authorities who advised against the travel to
certain countries.
So, now the representatives from
Czech Republic, Denmark, France, Hungary, Ireland, Poland, Portugal, Romania,
Russia and Serbia are on the startlist. Legendary Renata Csay, Cyrille Carre,
Jose Ramalho, Mads Pedersen, Mateusz Borgiel, Adrian Boros, Quentin Urban and
Jeremy Candy, Kristina Bedec, Jakub Brezina, Vanda Kiszli, Marton Kover are
just a few of those familiar names in canoe marathon who are on the startlist
and ready to fight for the medals.
The championships will begin on
Wednesday with opening ceremony, while the first races are scheduled for
Thursday.
On Monday and Tuesday, Moscow hosts
ECA Canoe Marathon Masters European cup, with around 100 participants mostly
from Russia. Other representatives come from Belarus, France, Ireland, Latvia,
Luxembourg and Ukraine.
