At 5’5″ and 115lbs I’m a coxswain and I love it! I feel so much bigger than the other coxes and the same size as the lightweight girls. My coach wants me to row again but I really love coxing, what should I do?
If your coach is asking you to row because your team doesn’t have enough to people to fill the boat I’d probably consider it, especially if you have the experience to fill in. I wouldn’t let being the same size as the lightweights make you think that you have to switch though. It helps if you do decide to switch back to rowing but you’re definitely not too big to be a coxswain by any means.
