Personal statement
Hello, my name is Lily Johnson and I am currently a sophomore in high school. I started rowing in my freshman year and I quickly fell in love with the sport. I love that rowing pushes me to my physical and mental limits and gives me a sense of peace where everything else falls away. Rowing brought me out of my shell and helped me find people that quickly became my second family.
I'm excited to work hard in the winter off-season to be faster and stronger for the upcoming season. I've also been given the opportunity to work with my old coach and teach the learn to rowers, this will help me learn and develop my technique through a coaching perspective.
Some of my goals for my U17 season are: To move into small boats and get my 2km erg time below 7:25
