Karen who just took her 3rd National SUP Surfing Championship a couple ofdays has now wrapped a sweep of the National Championships In Manzanillo this weekend by winning the final 5 mile sprint race to eliminate all of the other girls. She now holds 2 of the 3 National Surfing titles in Mexico for the 3rd year and in a few weeks will be trying to capture the final surfing title as well, somethingthat no one has ever done before. Sort of like the Triple Crown. She is returning to Puerto Vallarta Monday after a grueling training tour that included stops and intensive training in Puerto Escondido, Oaxaca and Cancun. She had an accident in Oaxaca with a giant wave that almost ended the tour for her but fortunately recovered sufficiently to go on and take the titles. She will be spending the next few weeks recovering under the care of Dr. Max Greig a well known Puerto Vallarta orthopedic surgeon and trauma specialist. If all goes well she will be off to Australia in a few weeks to compete in the far east. You can support our local champ on her facebook fan page at: https://www.facebook.com/Karen.SURF

Go Karen, Puerto Vallarta is behind you.

Special thanks to Mayor Ramon Guerrero and Regidor Otoniel Barragan for supporting her so well. over the last few months.
