To be honest, relief is the biggest thing right now.
00:04
I think it was tough conditions and it's now,
00:08
I mean, now that we're qualified,
00:09
it's the first time ever I've managed
00:11
to achieve the qualification.
00:12
And it was just overall good race.
00:16
Like we managed to get out of it very quickly.
00:18
We were surprised how quickly the rest of the crew
00:22
has followed up as well, especially China.
00:24
They stuck with us for way too long
00:27
than we would have liked.
00:29
But no, it's been a really good day, good racing.
00:33
And now I'm looking forward to an afternoon off.
00:37
- Oh, it's amazing.
00:38
I think this world championships is just so different.
00:41
You know, we're all coming to qualify
00:43
and obviously, you know, we're all punching for medals.
00:45
And the ideal is you punch for a medal
00:47
and then you get the qualification spot.
00:48
So yeah, we're absolutely buzzing to qualify.
00:51
That's priority job one done.
00:53
And now we're onto the final
00:54
and we got to chase those medals.
00:55
Composure.
00:57
- It was really, really not very nice weather out there,
00:59
to be honest, really changeable.
01:01
So I was trying to not rely on the speeds
01:04
and just rely on the way the boat was feeling
01:05
and what was going on.
01:07
And I could see USA on my little right hand side.
01:09
And to be honest, you know,
01:11
they have been the kind of bridesmaids to our bride
01:14
for years and years and years.
01:15
And I expected no different.
01:16
They've come out really strong this year
01:17
and yeah, we're excited to race them in the final.
01:19
- You know, we went out to have the best race we could
01:22
and we're just so grateful to be here
01:23
amongst all these fantastic crews.
01:24
So went for it and we're just excited
01:27
to keep learning and growing.
01:29
- Well, the more awareness and the more boats
01:31
that we can get in the PR34,
01:33
the faster we're all gonna go.
01:34
So if we can just keep getting boats out there,
01:36
keep getting athletes out there,
01:38
that's number one and we're all gonna keep growing together.
01:41
- We tried not to think too much about it
01:45
because having the games nearly at home,
01:49
it's a fantastic thing, I think, I believe for an athlete.
01:54
But it's also a lot of stress.
01:56
And we wanted to think about Paris
02:01
when we had our qualification quota.
02:04
So we have it.
02:06
Now we'll train for Paris.
02:07
regard.
