Life isn't always smooth sailing. We need to be equipped to manage school or work and our personal lives.
This is why preparation is key. When things are rough, we can rely on everything we have learned along the way.
Wise words from a prep school coach.
NEW PODCAST!
Mark Gainey was a kid from Reno, Nevada who never expected to end up on the Harvard Rowing team. Mark was actually recruited to Harvard for running! Mark had an unfortunate injury that ultimately let him to the Harvard boathouse. #rowerschoice
The last weeks before racing starts are always the hardest part of the year. Some teams are still inside, some are just getting on the water. The grind is real. Hang in there, fight through the last couple erg practices and finish the last 2k. #rowing#rowingquotes
The Juniors coach who said this to me would start practice by dividing the team up into their boats. Pre practice stretching, warming up on the erg and running were all done as a boat. Everything was done as a unit to create trust and unity.
