kayaks with the replica Patek Philippe watches support of an experienced team of river guides

Lieutenant Colonel Steve Beres is kayaking blind, literally, into a Class IV rapid on Oregon’s Deschutes River. This is a good idea. He’s here for Operation Peer Support—a program designed by the Blinded Veterans Association (BVA) and Team River Runner to encourage physical and emotional healing through adventure sports. Their mission today is to safely descend the Deschutes River in whitewater rafts and kayaks with the replica Patek Philippe watches support of an experienced team of river guides, several of whom are disabled veterans themselves. The tandem kayak piloted by Beres in the bow, and Sam Drevo, owner of Northwest River Guides, in the stern, peels into the current above a ledge that rolls into a powerful hydraulic: the entrance to Oak Springs Rapid, the crux of the Deschutes.

Hot off his win in the 1,500 meters last week, Bernard Lagat out-sprinted the pack and broke the line just .13 of a second before Kenyas Eliud Kipchoge, finishing the 3.1 mile race in 13:45.87.It was an insanely slow race from the start, with several 70 second laps (a pedestrian 4:40 mile pace). No one pushed the pace until the last 800 meters, and replica A Lange & Sohne 115.032 Men's watch Lagat didnt take the lead until the last half lap. Thats two golds in Osaka for 32-year-old Lagat, a Kenyan-born runner who won a pair of Olympic medals for his native country in 2000 and 2004. Lagat became a U.S. citizen in 2004.

Lagat was the first man ever to win both the 1,500 and the 5,000 in the same world championships. It was also the first time the U.S. has ever had three men in the 5,000 meter final--another sign of growing depth in the U.S. distance running ranks. replica A Lange & Sohne 101.033 Men's watch Matt Tegenkamp of Madison, Wisconsin, finished just behind Kipchoge and Ugandas Moses Kipsiro for a fourth place finish in 13:46.78. Adam Goucher finished last (11th place) in 13:53.17.--Justin NybergPhoto courtesy USA Track and Field.
