Interview draft
敏濠和永亮作为校国际处的记者本来打算跟着一次划船训练做一个拍摄加采访。不过周日下雨怕镜头淋坏就先推迟了。刚好又赶上下一周就入冬收船了，比较可惜。让我写了个发言稿，给敏濠润色了一下。备个份怕丢了。
Q1. Introduce yourself. （简单自我介绍，龙舟队队长）
Hello, everyone. I am a graduate student from the School of Life Sciences at Tsinghua University, currently acting as the captain of the Dragon Boat Team. I joined the team when I entered the university in 2022, and I have been in the sport for five years now.
Q2. When did you start doing dragon boat? （什么时候开始学龙舟？如何理解到？）
I began learning about dragon boating in my freshman year in 2018 back when I first started at Nankai University. In my opinion, the biggest difference between dragon boating and other sports is the emphasis on unity. Dragon boating is not just a collective of individuals participating in a sport; it is a way to build connections and relationships among team members. Personally, I am not particularly fond of highly competitive activities, but I genuinely cherish the time I have spent with my dragon boat team during my university years. It is not just my love for the sport that has kept me involved, but also the camaraderie and the sense of happiness that comes from paddling together. Dragon boating has transformed me from being introverted to confident. I hope to provide a platform at Tsinghua University where others can also experience the benefits I have gained from dragon boating.
Q3. What practice is like? （日常训练平时干啥）
Our training mainly consists of strength training through gym sessions and technical training on the actual dragon boat in water facilities off-campus. However, considering that our team members are ordinary students with busy academic and research schedules, we have designed a training schedule that accommodates everyone’s time constraints. Each day, we focus on training different parts of the body. On Tuesdays, we incorporate running to improve cardiovascular fitness. At the end of each land training session, we engage in collective core exercises. Fridays are dedicated to free training, allowing individuals to focus on specific areas or make up for missed sessions. In addition to our regular training, we also organize team-building activities such as cycling outings. Last month, we had a picnic at the Olympic Forest Park.
Q4. What are your hopes for this year for the team?（今年对龙舟队的希望）
My hope for the upcoming year is twofold. Firstly, I aim to increase the awareness and presence of our Dragon Boat Team within the Tsinghua University community. I want to expand our influence and build a strong, united family centered around dragon boating. It should not be limited to just a sport, but a platform where individuals can develop their interests, forge friendships, and experience various aspects of life together. Secondly, as a competitive team, we strive to achieve better results in the upcoming season. During the selection process, we prioritize physical fitness, but we also provide opportunities for individuals who may not possess outstanding physical qualities but are passionate about joining the dragon boat team and actively participating in training.
