Verlen Kruger (June 30, 1922, Pulaski County, Indiana - August 2, 2004) was a canoe enthusiast who paddled over 160,000km (100,000 miles) in his lifetime according to the Guinness Book of World Records, all the more remarkable because he did not start until age 41. Of particular note are the 29,341km (18,232 mile) [http://www.krugercanoes.com/pr03.htm Two Continent Canoe Expedition] and the 45,130km (28,043 mile) [http://www.krugercanoes.com/pr02.htm Ultimate Canoe Challenge] , the longest canoe journey ever.
