Injury

I had been doing quite well with my training while on vacation until the Injury. I cut my foot on the coral and had to get 6 stitches on my middle toe. It's amazing how much of your training requires both feet. I was very limited with what I could do for 3 days. Even now it is still painful and I will be playing catchup for a while.

Hawaii

As many of you are aware, I am currently in Hawaii. Although it is nice to get away from the snow, it's not nice to be away from the Kwoon. That place is like a second home to me. My goals while away are to keep up on my training as much as possible but to definately keep up on my UBBT goals. Wish me luck and I will see you all again in 3 long weeks.

Fitness

Yesterday, a couple other Sihings and myself got together to do the black belt fitness test. I was really nervous about going as I didn’t know how I would do and I thought it would discourage me if my numbers were low. I am really glad that I went as my numbers were quite good in some areas. The best part was that it identified which areas I need to improve upon. My goal now is to improve my numbers significantly in these areas while trying to improve my other numbers as well. Even though this is only a part of the black belt test, it is important to know where you have to focus your attention. Thanks Sihing Wiebe and Sihing Kichko. It was great doing this with you guys.

Sigh

I am feeling lost this week as my family is dealing with some personal issues. I hope we can resolve them soon as it takes away from your energy and your focus. That's all for now.
