HISTORIC
You all see the records and accomplishments. You see the well executed drills and podium finishes. All that stuff is fun, but what you don’t get to see is the growth these athletes make over their four years. They start off as wide eyed 18 years olds and finish as adults, ready to take on the challenges of the world. In that time they experience high highs, low lows, and everything in between, with every moment teaching them something new.
Coaching is the best because we get to see their growth, in detail, unfolding right in front of our eyes. We get to experience it with them.
Abbey is not the only example of growth, she just happens to be the most recent. But it’s this moment that reminds me of the things that matter most; patience, good communication, and not comparing your journey to anyone else’s.
4 years of growth captured in one moment. Coaching is the best.
