    Golden Glories, Broken Hearts & Smashed Records I’m sipping a smoothie as I sit opposite a sporting superstar in the unassuming setting of Frenz Café at the AUT Millennium Institute. I can’t help but think it’s perhaps an incongruous spot in which to interview an Olympian, multiple world and Commonwealth champion and reigning World Athlete of the Year. But, once you get chatting to Valerie Adams, you soon realise that she too, is just as unassuming. A young girl sits next to the athlete and asks for a selfie. Adams obliges, asking about her school, her family and her friends. The young girl, with almost comedic stubbornness, remains seated at the athlete’s side as we continue the chat but Valerie is all warmth, smiles and patience. A couple of hints are dropped, but the girl is too young – and in awe – to take them. Ten minutes later she leaves on her own terms. Words: Jamie Christian Desplaces “You know, I’m just Val,” Adams tells me. “What you see is what Their relationship began with some rather blunt advice. “I was 20 you get. People think I live this extraordinary life, but it’s pretty kilos heavier when we first met up,” says Valerie, “and he told me normal. I get up early, eat breakfast in my apartment and then I needed to lose it. I could have taken that in a negative way, but I train all day. I come home shattered. I shower, eat, sleep then didn’t. I lost the weight in three months to show him how serious do it all over again.” Her upbringing, she says, installed strong I was and six months later I won the World Championship with a values: “We didn’t have much.

I will have to apologise for this “divide and conquer attitude” of the NRC. Up until last week the nearest drop in, as so called, was at Waitangi on Monday 10th April and because of the time restraints only 21 days submissions closed we asked them to come to Doves Bay to have a normal meeting where they would address us and questions asked from the floor. This request was re- fused and therefore we had to agree to their format. NRC has contacted us since the meeting where they have suggested that any members that did not get their questions answered to submit a written question to the club’s office. They are prepared to come back and address the written questions. I hope I can rally the clubs in the BOI to make submissions on the NRC marine pathway management plan. I attended with Melanie, a meeting at Opua with all the marina reps in the NRC region to collate a response to the NRC Marine Pathway. I urge all boat owners to put a submission in, as this is your only opportunity to voice your opinion on the selected charge and implantation.

He also coached the New Zealand’s women’s team to five medals at the 2018 Canoe Sprint World Championships in Portugal and Carrington to win the K1 200m.

  • Totally Oarsome…
    Leander New s Leander Club Newslette r Winter 2010 Totally Oarsome… Leander has had another very strong year in 2010. We have produced winning crews at every level and with the World Championships less than a week away, there is promise of yet more success for Leander athletes and coaches in New Zealand. These Championships are two months later than usual to fit in with the New Zealand summer, and as a result it seems strange to be reflecting on the season thus far when it is not yet finished. One of the positives of this situation is that it reduces the amount of winter training that many of us will have to do for the 2011 season! The most recent addition to the team is Beijing silver medallist Debbie Flood, who following a training camp in Germany has been confirmed as competing in the women’s quad - the boat in which she has twice won silver at successive Olympic Games.
