Emma Coburn on ‘focusing on things I can control’ amid Olympics postponement

While reminiscing over the year past, Olympian Emma Coburn got candid about the uncertainty that followed the Olympics postponement.

The athlete got candid with People magazine and was quoted saying, "I have really just had [a] focus on things I can control, and so I did pretty well through COVID and lockdown and cancellations of meets and all of that. I just focused on what I can control, and that was training hard, training smart, being safe."

"I felt I had prepared my whole career for a moment where the world was crazy and things were really terrible and sad that I knew to just control what I can control," she continues, "and really just, day to day, focus on my training, and that got me through. And now there's light at the end of the tunnel.”
