Kimberley Woods Vlog #1: Tokyo Postponement & Returning to Canoeing
Next up in our brand new Destination Tokyo series, Kimberley Woods gives us an insight into life as a British canoeist throughout the COVID-19 pandemic.
Woods, who has already been confirmed as part of the Team GB canoe slalom squad for Tokyo 2020, describes how the postponement of the Olympics has affected her preparations and some the challenges that she's faced during lockdown.
She also takes us behind the scenes at the Lee Valley White Water Centre - the home of British Canoeing, revealing how elite athletes have been able to return to training safely.
Stay tuned for more ‘Destination Tokyo’ vlogs in the build-up to Tokyo 2020, capturing the day to day life of five British athletes (Kimberley Woods, Shona McCallin, Alys Thomas, Tom Squires and Naomi Ogbeta) as they prepare for the first ever postponed Olympic Games.
