Canada's Hudak, Arendz each claim bronze in cross-country skiing at Milano-Cortina Paralympics

Canada's Mark Arendz collected his 14th career Paralympic medal while teammate Brittany Hudak earned her fourth in Wednesday's standing cross-country skiing races at Milano Cortina.

Both Canadians took bronze in their respective 10-kilometre interval start classic events at Tesero Cross-country Skiing Stadium in Val di Fiemme.

Arendz, 36, captured his second medal of these Games with a time of 27 minutes 59.3 seconds, crossing the finish line behind France's Karl Tabouret (27:10.7) and Belarus' Raman Svirydzenka (27:38.4).

The five-time Paralympian from Hartsville, P.E.I., won silver in the individual biathlon event last Sunday.

Hudak, from Prince Albert, Sask., secured her spot on the podium with a time of 32:01.0, placing her behind American Sydney Peterson (29:49.2) and Norway's Vile Nilsen (29:51.8).

It marks the first medal in Italy for the 32-year-old Hudak, a co-captain of Canada’s Paralympic delegation. She has been battling the lingering effects of a knee injury for the past year and a half.

Emma Archibald of Fall River, N.S., finished sixth in 35:26.8.

The two medals inch Canada closer to the vaunted 200 total Winter Paralympic medal mark, as the country currently sits at 198 overall.

Canada now has 10 medals through five days of competition at the Milano-Cortina Paralympics — one gold, three silver, six bronze. The full medal table is available here.
