I was always in Oscoda in September salmon fishing on the weekend the race was in town. And let there be no mistake, that is a hell of a race !

It is such a big race that teams from all over the world come to race it. Usually about 60 canoes start but only about 50 actually finish. It is pretty tough. My best time was a 14 hrs and 47 minutes for an 8th place. Last years total prize purse was over a $1M Back then I had 6 canoes at a time that I alternated training on. I don't have even one now, but I have 5 kayaks... https://youtu.be/0qdZj8H92b0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mAwWUQYoxVY https://www.ausablecanoemarathon.org/marathon/
