Denmark will host the 2022 ECA Canoe
Marathon European Championships from Thursday to Sunday, and on Monday and
Tuesday the 2022 ECA Masters Canoe Marathon European Cup will take place in
Silkeborg, the outdoor capital of Denmark.
In Silkeborg, everything is ready for
the 2022 ECA Canoe Marathon European Championships. This is the first time
Denmark hosts the canoe marathon Championships of the Old Continent, while the
previous editions were held in Spain, Hungary, Portugal, Italy, France, Poland,
Czech Republic, Slovakia, Slovenia, Russia and Croatia. However, Denmark hosted
two Canoe Marathon World Championships in the past, both times in Copenhagen
(1990 and 2013).
Athletes from 17 European countries
will fight for the European Champion titles (Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic,
France, Germany, Great Britain, Hungary, Ireland, Netherlands, Norway, Poland,
Portugal, Serbia, Spain, Sweden, Ukraine and of course Denmark).
The European Championships will start
on Thursday with junior women’s kayak and canoe and junior men’s canoe events,
as well as short races. On Friday, junior WK2, MC1 U23, WK1 U23, junior MC2 and
MK1 U23 events are on the programme. Saturday brings junior MK1 and senior
women’s and men’s kayak and canoe events. On Sunday, the championships will
conclude with junior MK2, and senior MC2, MK2 and WK2 events.
Many stars of canoe marathon are on
the start lists, which promises exciting action in outdoor capital of Denmark.
The first name of the Danish team will be undoubtedly Mads Pedersen, who will
try to keep the prestigious European Champion title at home. His task will not
be an easy one, as Adrian Boros, Jose Ramalho, Marcel Paufler, Ivan Alonso,
Eivind Vold and others will have the same goal in mind.
In men’s canoe Manuel Campos, Manuel
Garrido, Jakub Brezina and Marton Horvath also promise good race, while in
women’s kayak Vanda Kiszli, Szofia Voros, Jennifer Simmons, Tania Alvarez and
Eva Barrios look to win gold. Legendary Renata Csay is also coming to Denmark
to fight for the gold in women’s K2 event.
