031: Kara Kohler | Three-time Olympian, 2012 Bronze Medalist, & college walk-on
In this episode we have 3-time Olympian and 2012 bronze medalist, Kara Kohler, fresh off a 5th place finish in the Women’s Single at the Paris Olympics, and former college walk-on who didn’t start rowing until she entered college!
Kara and I talk about…
The value of being a competitive swimmer in high school and developing athletic diversity before beginning her rowing career in college at Cal
Winning a bronze medal at the Olympics less than three years into her rowing journey, then returning to Cal and winning a national championship in the Varsity 8+
Managing the ups and downs of four Olympic cycles, including her return to the Olympics in 2021 after not making the 2016 team
