Well it's World Cup regatta time... and not only 1 World Cup, there are 2 in 2 weeks!
So after months of preparation and training it's time for SA Canoeing's medal hopeful, Bridgitte Hartley to measure herself against the world.
Having not had much in the way of real competition yet, Bridgitte is literally itching to get on the water and race it out with her fellow Olympic contenders.
Just this week, she took possession of her brand new Nelo sprint boat, and will be spending this week setting the boat up and preparing for her 1st serious racing since starting her training program way back in November 2011.
From the Chiro's side of the treatment table, Bridgitte is looking an awesome physical shape. The steps she has made in her conditioning since last season are visible and should make a tangible difference to performance. And with Bridgitte having set the current K1 500m World Record last season, we are hoping that puts her out front with all the other girls chasing!
Good luck Bridgitte. We are holding thumbs and will be waiting for news.
