A Leete Olympian!

We have a Leete in the Olympics!  (Maybe more than one.  Any others?)  Adrienne Martelli, daughter of Chris and Gail (Leete) Martelli, has qualified in the 4 person skulls (that’s rowing a skull , a kind of skinny canoe like thing.)   She is 24 years old.  She started rowing at the University of Washington in 2006 and did very well.  After graduating from college in 2010 she moved to New Jersery to continue training with the USA National team.
So, if you haven’t watched rowing before, nows the time to see what an exciting sport it is.  I’m a kayaker, so I know something of the stamina and overall conditioning required to excel at this sport.  It’s in the Leete genes!
