Show Notes

Noemie Fox is the first-ever Olympic champion in the women’s kayak cross.

While she comes from a family of paddling royalty, the youngest Fox wasn’t always in love with the sport. A self-described, late bloomer, it wasn’t until age 15 that Noemie found her love for water sports.

Growing up alongside her Olympic Champion sister, Noemie kept falling just short of that Olympic quota. That is until she found kayak cross and made it her niche. 

While she only left herself two months to qualify for this year's Paris Games, the journey to get there was certainly worth its weight in gold.
