Learning to Love the Process, with Mary Whipple | Episode 64

Get ready to get pumped up! In this week’s energetic episode, host Kristi Wagner chats with Mary Whipple, the former Team USA coxswain for the Women’s 8, 2x Olympian with two gold and one silver medal, 5x world champion, and current coach and commentator. Mary tells Kristi about how she came to love coxing after first being disappointed at not being selected as a rower, how not buying into limitations gave her an edge over her competitors and why she started The 9th Seat, which provides resources, training and community for coxswains. Then Mary counts down her top four favorite races, and gives Kristi some solid coaching and a pep talk as she prepares to head to the Olympics.

Plus, Kristi’s riding the “gravy train” all the way to Paris (21 days and counting!)
