What is The Princeton Hot Seat?

The Princeton Hot Seat is a new recurring photo blog to highlight the transient nature of the rowing community in the Princeton, New Jersey area.  It's open to anyone directly involved with the sport of rowing that comes to Princeton on rowing "business".  Could be rowers, coxswains, coaches, boatmen, officials, etc.

How does the Hot Seat Work?

Each subject gets four questions to answer, the first of which is simply, why are you here (in Princeton)?  Then the subject randomly draws the remaining three from a pool of pre-determined questions, of which half are rowing related, half are not...and can be pretty random.  They get one pass.


 

On the Hot Seat today is the coxswain of the USA Jr W8+, Hannah Malzahn

Princeton Hot Seat - Why are you in Princeton?

Hannah Malzhan - I'm in Princeton coxing the junior women's eight for the upcoming world championships in Rio.

PHS - What three things do you think are the most important to being a successful coxswain?

HM - I think it's important to have confidence, an understanding of the sport, and a good deal of patience.

PHS - What is your favorite type of cross training for rowing/coxing?

HM - I like running long distances for steady state workouts just to keep myself fit.

PHS - What is your spirit animal, and why?

HM - The red panda.  That is what all my teammates have called me in the past, because I am soft on the outside, but on the inside I can get a little mean sometimes.
