Just got back from a multi-academy Tae Kwon Do competition. There were well over two hundred competitors from schools across the state, somehow crammed into a school baseball gym.

It was quite a blast. Unfortunately there were only a dozen competitors in my division (green through purple belts, ages 13-15) but I placed second in sparring and third in patterns.

I think it was important to me, because I gained my confidence back. Last two tournaments I did rather poorly, because I expected myself to lose. That attitude is out the window now, and I look forward to my next tournament!

My dad caught a couple of my sparring matches on tape, hopefully I can share them here soon, simply for the sake of ya'll watching me get my rear kicked (well, not really.)

Sorry, you'll have to download it

Will upload more soon, this one is just for the amusement value. I'm the big lanky feller. I actually did end up beating that kid, was just a bit queasy after recieving that kick (well, more than a bit.)

Nice job, I'm more of a big lanky fellow too.
