CANBERRA teen Ben Rake is off to represent Australia as an under 18 in the Canoe Marathon World Championships in Oklahoma later this month.
Ben has been paddling for approximately 3 years and is trained by Olympic medalist Clint Robinson. He has also represented NSW the last two years at a national level.
While marathon kayaking is a fringe sport in the ACT it is popular in other states.
