あらすじ・解説
Despite growing up around rowing, Olympian Kate Knifton didn't get on the water until she was a teen. But when she did, she never looked back! She went on to help Texas earn their first national title (and then another one!) and represent Team USA in Paris. Kate has stayed passionate about the sport despite injuries and setbacks with the help of her teammates and family. Today we dive in to:
- Why she resisted rowing as a kid until her first job on the docks of her dad's rowing center
- Rowing at the Head of the Charles Regatta
- Road to Paris -- what it was like training with the national team and earning a spot on the Olympic roster
- How freshman year heartbreak at Texas lead to the program's first national title (and a second one not long after!)
- New coaching gig with My Row
- The big Q...LA2028?
