About Phoebe Pryce
Where did you learn to row and who was your first coach?
St Andrew Boat Club, Tom Duke and Lindsay Flockhart.
What inspires you about sport?
I love the simplicity of rowing, the training is reliable and the result on race day is simply a reflection of that training.
Explain your earliest memory of The Boat Race
I remember watching the boat race in COVID when it was held in Ely and even though at that point I didn't have a particular side to support I remember being so stressed by all the competitive coxing.
Do you relish in hours in the gym and miles in the dark, or do you live for race days?
I enjoy the regularity of training but on the days I don't feel like training I hold onto the thought of race day (and sunny mornings) being the reason why I do this sport.
What's the secret to managing elite-level sport with studying at one of the top universities in the world?
Not sure I've figured it out yet - but just staying organised and creating a routine where you use the time you're not training efficiently.
