The funny thing is I get terrible stage fright too. I always have and I imagine I always will. In fact, I used to stutter as a child. Coxing has actually been really useful in mastering my stage fright and being able to speak in public is an incredibly valuable skill no matter what you do for a living. Miss you guys too!

I have tried coxing a couple of times. Even though I'm a total rookie with pretty bad stage fright, I found the experience incredibly gratifying. I think it is a unique opportunity at LARC and unless you are the right size, one probably wouldn't find the opportunity many other places. (I swear I'm not just saying that because I need more coxswains for my team...! But it would be nice, I won't lie) I love it, Trinity! :) We miss you!!!

I think my buns and legs get a great workout when I am in the coxwain seat... I'm always trying to push the boat with my legs... not sure how effective it is... but, my my legs are usually more sore after coxing then rowing. :-) JIll" …. awesome, Trinity! :) This comment came from Jill:
