Sea Kayak Championships

On 4th August, Dawid will line up with 150-180 paddlers in K1, K2 and "traditional" boats to take part in one of five races that make up the Spanish Sea Kayaking Championships.

"Also at the race will be one of Spain's top K1 marathon paddlers," host Jonathan Neill said. "If it's flat, Dawid will have his work cut out!"

The race is to be held in the town of La Vila Joyosa which is 120 km south of Valencia and 30 km north of Alicante (home to the Americas Cup and start of the Volvo Ocean Challenge respectively.)
