Results of today's Hawaii Island Paddlesports Association races, held on the East side of Hawaii Island. Both the 10 mile long and 6 mile short courses started at Richardson's Park in Keaukaha and finished in front of Puna Canoe Club's halau at Hilo Bayfront. These events were followed by a 3 mile race for the Juniors, several of whom had paddled in the previous 6 mile short course. These kids are amazing!
