Gold from the Paris Olympics 2024 in the K1 1000 meters. Bronze from Tokyo, silver and bronze from Rio, the first Olympic medal in London. In addition, six world championship titles, the title of Athlete of the Year and a place among the biggest names in Czech sport.

Josef Dostál has achieved a lot, but he still has his feet firmly on the ground. Outside the racetrack, he enjoys playing the guitar, fishing and from time to time he also delves into the world of investments. Not to attract attention, but because he enjoys looking for depth and meaning in various things. As in sports, he believes in patience, preparation and a long-term outlook.

Josef is not the type to talk about success out loud. He prefers to let the results speak for him. Whether it's on the water, by the water or in life.
