Sunday....woke up sore from the kick a thon and with a headache, so much for going to the park to meet up and practice.

Got my requirements done....not sure if I'm going to get all 'zeros' because I've been entering my time and not the amount of the requirement. However, I asked several times about completing the tracker correctly, and I was assured to put the time for: jump rope, push ups, sit ups, burpees, poomsaes, self-defense, and kicks....which doesn't match the tracker, but what am I going to do?!?! I'm following directions.

I've been in martial arts since 2002. I started in tong soo do under Head master M.K. Lee in Pineville, N.C. After I broke my left hand during a colored belt exam, I switched to Taekwondo under Head master William Grady down in Pineville, N.C. I trained at Eagle Taekwondo for 8 years, earning my 3rd Dan. When Covid the dojang did not survive. I have now been training at King Tiger , North Charlotte location, under Grand Master Evins since June of 2023. I am excited to start my Masters journey, but very nervous at the same time. I look forward to meeting the other candidates.
