My Success Story

When I was a high school student, I belonged to the rowing club. I was hurt and couldn’t row in the first year, so I was a cox. I practiced, so I was able to row in the second year. First I rowed a boat of 5-passenger, but I was not able to adapt myself to crew members. I became singlesculler. I adapted it. I came second place in a prefecture meeting after I became the fourth place in a national convention. I participated in the National Athletic Meet in the third year. I rowed with four crew members. They were students from other schools, but they were the best crew. I had value to have met them than my having won in national convention. My success story is to have rowed with them.
