The season 2019 was supposed to be the most important so far for Norwegian canoe sprinter Amund Vold (he won two medals at the 2019 ECA Junior and U23 European Championships in Račice and gold medal at World Cup in Poznan in men’s K1 5000 metres event as well as two medals at Canoe Marathon World Cup in Baerum) who was expected to start at World Championships in Szeged and fight for the Olympic spots for Tokyo 2020. Instead of this fight he had to undertake a completely different one. He was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia and started tough cancer treatment.
