PARIS — Katie Vincent rewrote the record book multiple times as she surged over the finish line in the women's 200-metre sprint canoe final at the Paris Olympics on Saturday.
“And you know, 44.1 was a dream seven or eight years ago. We were winning times of 46, and then it got down to 45, and then slowly it got lower and lower. We're approaching a 43.3 area, with the right day, and it's just a credit to how hard all these girls are working all over the world." Earlier on Saturday, kayaker Michelle Russell, of Fall River, N.S., finished eighth in the women's single 500m final and Riley Melanson of Dartmouth was sixth in a placing race.
