Last night was a great night in our South Charlotte Black Belt class. We worked on poomsae with Master Chin for 1st half then Instructor Hsin gave us a great challenging work out. I met with my most awesome Mentor Amy Tucker. We worked on Staff attack/defend. I needed to refresh myself on it and I always enjoy performing that with a person instead of just by myself. I hope to meet with my mentee, Russ Castilow, tonight. We are behind on meetings because he was out of town one week then out sick the next week. We will need to double up this week but that keeps me from being able to go to North Charlotte for BB class and PMAA because he and I work out after our Wang Ho class that runs to about 7:30. Ugh, I was really wanted to go to NC for more sticks. Well, a high yellow belt needs my help.
I ran again this morning. I know a lot of people do not get the importance of me being able to say that. If you have not struggled with your weight, self confidence and running then it may be difficult to grasp. I am glad my knee (left) appears to be holding up to the task this cycle and I can actually run. I did the route backwards today. No, I did not run backwards, I ran the opposite direction, meaning I took a left out of my driveway instead of a right. That posed new and different challenges during my run. More on that later. Need to get in shower.
