Tokyo Olympic canoeist Liam Jegou is on Réunion Island in the Indian Ocean on a warm-weather training camp, with many Tokyo Olympians (and hopeful qualifiers) from around Europe.

Last weekend a small international race was held for the athletes training on the course.

Jegou came away with third in this race, competing against a lot of the same athletes he will be lining up against in Tokyo in July.
