  • Summary

  • Eric Murray is one of the most decorated Kiwi athletes of all-time. The 2x Olympic Rowing Gold Medalist and 8x World Rowing Champion doesn't compete anymore, but it's hard to keep him away from the sport. He's now involved in coaching, and advises rowing organizations both locally and globally.
    In this episode, we discuss Eric's fascinating climb to the peak of his sport, the lessons he learned along the way, as well as how to be and stay successful.
    As a 'chubby' kid from Pukekohe, Eric took up rowing at school, but is the first to admit he wasn't very good — while strong and fit, he lacked the technique needed to compete on the world stage. Still, he persevered. And after 8 years of juggling work, study and training, Eric finally got his opportunity. And he took it.
    I hope you will find Eric's story as inspiring as I have.
