Hi Meg,

I’m cutting back on my coxswain clinics until after August 2012, but look out after the summer of 2012 because the 9th Seat will be in full effect!

Stay tuned…

I don’t give out my race tapes anymore. I had a bad experience with giving a couple tracks away when I was younger. I may be releasing some old tracks with a self critique. I want to show people how you can grow as a coxswain from listening to your tapes….stay tuned.

Hi Mary, I was at your cox clinic in Philly. Is it posible to get a copy of your race audio so I can practice things to say when racing. I am a novice coxswain

Hi Dale,

Thank you for your kind words. I unfortunately don’t know how to get a copy of it. I have had many people ask about like yourself. I think Showtime owns it. Bud Greenspan has done many other Olympic documentaries and after doing a google search I haven’t found a way to purchase any. Sorry I couldn’t help.

Mary:

I was traveling on business and happened to flip on the hotel TV and catch the showtime documentary. Incredibly moving (as a US servicemember, I loved the national anthem part with you all singing). As it turns out, a very good friend of mine was part of the Women’s National Championship 8 from Boston Univ. in 1991 and I have been raving about it to her. We went to college together and she married one of my best friends (who also crewed for BU Men). I wanted to get a copy for them both but can’t find it anywhere! Any help or idea or is it simply “watch it on showtime?”

Thanks for your response. I enjoy visiting your web site. I was never involved with rowing till college, and as a walk-on I never could have imaged I would love it so much. I miss crew so very much, and will always charish many wonderful memories of being a coxswain, and part of a team of such wonderful young ladies.

Thanks for the kind words! The show you are referring to is the The Bud Greenspan documentary, Bud Greenspan Presents: Beijing 2008 America’s Olympic Glory. It was made for Showtime. It was pretty awesome especially when other rowers have that reactions. It’s not very often that reporters or producers get how being apart of a rowing team feels like and this documentary made you ‘get it.’
