Winning the Big Race with Megan Lee | Episode 54

Wave the white flag! In this episode, join host Kristi Wagner for a lively chat with champion rower Megan Lee. Megan is a student and athlete at Cambridge University in the UK, whose rowing team just triumphed over the Oxford team in the 78th Women’s Boat Race in London. Megan gives us the play by play of the race itself, including a near collision with the other boat, and the longest four minutes of her life waiting for the umpire to name the winner. Plus we hear hilarious stories of the media frenzy surrounding the match, complete with staged slice-of-life cooking segments and going incognito to dodge roaring crowds. Also, it’s the one year anniversary of the podcast! Kristi shares with us her reflections of what she’s learned and loved about doing the show. You won’t want to miss this fun and exciting episode!
