This is a Sandy Boy Productions podcast.

Hey everybody, welcome to all have another podcast with Lindsay Hein. I'm your host Lindsay. Thanks for joining us today. Normally on this podcast, I interview runners, both professional runners, coaches, everyday runners. And we are doing a series where we're highlighting athletes in other sports. And I'm really excited about this interview with Kendall Chase.

Kendall is a U.S. Olympian in rowing, and she now coaches. She's an assistant coach at MIT

for their rowing team. And wow, I learned so much about the sport of rowing in this conversation.

Kendall represented the United States at the 2020 Summer Olympics in rowing.

She attended the University of California, Berkeley, and she grew up in Colorado.

So we learn about her progression in the sport, as well as that Olympic experience

she had. We also hear about a traumatic injury she had when she started cycling at a professional

level and how she's recovered from that. We talk about what coaching looks like for her now.

And, you know, I read the book. You've probably heard me talk about this way too much. I've read

I have all of my rowing knowledge from that book. So I did use that for some of my questions.

Maybe a little too many of my questions came from that book.

But yeah, I really enjoyed.

I think because I've read the book and watched the movie Boys in the Boat,

it made learning about rowing more exciting for me, and I hope that you all will enjoy this

and learn a little something as well.

I think sport is such a beautiful thing, and to learn more about all these different sports

that we get to watch and especially get to see more highlighted during an Olympic year has

been really fun.

And just like running, you know,

we want, we want running to be highlighted and talked about more than just during that Olympic year. And so I'm sure the other sports have hopes for that as well. So here we are talking
