May 29th Selection Camp Day 1/ Practice #2

Let go and let God.

I guess from her on out I need to realize that high levels of stress decrease my rowing performance. I should know that by now! I just get so caught up in performance anxiety that I row awful. At practice today I did not do well. My oar was sucking up a bunch of water with the oar shaft. We pulled a 1000m piece and then got dropped off at the dock. The slide was rushed almost as if I was the only taking 1/2 strokes. After the piece I was so disappointed because I only got one chance. Everything is set up so professionally. There is a speed coach that tells us all of the numbers you would see on an erg.
