Rheinisch can revel in raging waters

This must be a strange morning for Eoin Rheinisch.

Four years on from finishing fourth in the K1 Kayak final at the Beijing Games, the Kildare man is preparing for a day which could potentially end with him battling for an Olympic medal.

So how does he channel the memories of that steamy afternoon of China as he saw bronze agonisingly slip from his grasp? Does it help to have the experience of coming within touching distance of the podium or a hindrance of having to shoulder increased expectations.
