PYEONGCHANG, South Korea—After Mark Arendz missed the top of the Paralympic medal podium four years ago in Sochi, he harnessed that frustration in every training session. Arendz, who lost his left arm after he toppled into a grain auger on his family farm at the age of seven, missed gold four years ago in Sochi by just seven tenths of a second. Collin Cameron of Bracebridge, Ont., started Friday’s march to the podium, winning bronze in the sitting 15K race. Then Brittany Hudak of Prince Albert, Sask., added bronze in the women’s standing 12.5K race. “Seeing Emily ahead of me, she basically pulled me around the course on the last lap, yelling at me,” Hudak said.
