What may seem to be impossible always has the potential to be possible. As a second semester senior, this is one thing that I have learned. At first, it was simple curiosity and the challenge that led to my joining the crew team. I wanted to prove to myself that I could do it. Later it became a combination of the physical exercise, the love of the sport, the commitment I had made to my teammates, and most importantly, the goals we had set forth to achieve.
Some people join the team for social aspects and others, for the more physical aspects.
However, it becomes more of a physical commitment in the end. A more realistic and maybe, a more sound mentality, is to set goals and strive to achieve them. I look up to the rowers on the team. They have amazing dedication and perform all tasks with great tenacity. This respect that I hold for the team members has been a great source of inspiration.
