The next point of interest that Sara shares with us is how she went olympic. She tells us what motivates her, as well as ask her how she improved on her technique. She also gives us a couple of terms that are used in boating. “What is the qualifying process to be an olympian? What’s it like in the Olympic Village?” We ask her these questions and she tells us about her olympic experience. Sara shares with us her plans to compete in Rio, as well as the things that keep her motivated. Sara tells us about how her mindset changed after getting injured.

She then tells us about how things have changed in her life from then on. Finally, she tells us about the importance of skill and strength when it comes to your foundation.
