Sporting career

Zereske won ten medals at the ICF Canoe Sprint World Championships with two gold medals (C-2 200 m: 1997, 1998), three silver medals (C-1 200 m: 1995, C-1 500 m: 1990, C-2 200 m: 1990), and five bronze medals (C-1 1000 m: 1990, C-2 200 m: 1999, C-2 500 m: 1997, 1998; C-4 500 m: 1991).[2]

Competing in three Summer Olympics, Zereske earned his best finish of fifth place three times (C-1 500 m: 1996 for Germany, C-2 500 m: 1988 for East Germany, 2000 for Germany).[1]

As the German national championships, Zereske won two C-1 200 m, three C-2 200 m, and four C-4 200 m titles.[3] He also won national championship in C-1 500 m three times and C-1 10000 m once.[4] Zereske earned a German national championship in the C-2 500 m event in 1997.[5]

Coaching career

After Zereske retired from canoeing, he became a coach of the German Dragon Boat racing national team.[6] As a coach, his teams won a complete set of medals in 2002 with a gold in the women's 500 m, a silver in the men's 500 m, and a bronze in the men's 250 m; and two silver medals in 2003.[6] The 2003 silvers were in the men's 500 m and women's 500 m events.[6]

Death

A native of Neubrandenburg,[1] Zereske died of leukemia in 2004.[7] Zereske had only been diagnosed with leukemia five days prior to his death.[6] His former canoeing partner Christian Gille wore a black armband in honor of Zereske during the 2004 Summer Olympic sprint canoeing events.[8] After Gille and his current teammate won the gold in the C-2 1000 m event at those games, Gille dedicated the medal to his fallen teammate.[7]
