While 2 years on may sound like a long time, it will be gone in a blink of an eye. Time at the Olympic venue is at a premium especially in the summer months. Remember the Olympics starts on July 26h 2020, so it is this time of year (end of July and beginning of August) that we need to be practising in to experience similar conditions to those we are likely to have at the Olympic games.

So although the Enoshima World Cup event was held quite late this year with mainly northerly (offshore) winds as opposed to the summer sea breezes (onshore) I was pleased with the progress made by Tuula Tenakanen and Lu Falasca who finished just inside and just outside the medal race zone respectively. Of course, there is still a lot of work to do as the bar continues to be raised as everyone improves with passing months, but at the half way stage we are where we need to be.
