The Power Company Climbing Podcast
Sports:Wilderness
Lantien Chu is a smiling fountain of wisdom. She's also coach of the Lander Tigers high school swim team, which has won 21 consecutive state titles. Most important, she's an exceptional human.
Wait... 21 consecutive state titles? Yes, and the team does it without ever cutting a swimmer, including some who can't swim when they join the team.
That seems like a lot of pressure to endure, year after year, particularly if you're a 16 or 17 year old student. I needed to know how she coached her team, how her team responds, and if any of those lessons could be applicable to climbing.
Turns out they all are. They're also applicable to being an exceptional human.
