When Sophie Brown wanted to learn to row a coach asked her, "why would you do this if you're disabled." Her reply was "why not?" More than a decade later, a drive to find the perfect stroke has brought her two Henley wins. She'll be checking off a bucket list item when she crosses the pond to race a para mixed double at the 2022 Head of the Charles.
We first met Sophie when she began working out with us during our virtual Steady State Sunday erg workouts. She's been a lively and spirited fan of the erg work and our podcast, and this was our opportunity to talk with her about adaptive rowing, racing, and awareness.
