Tomorrow is my first Powerlifting meet of this year, and I'm REALLY excited about it. Several people in my weightlifting group and I are loading up on a bus with coach tomorrow at 6:00 AM and heading to a school atSalina, OK. This will be my fourth meet ever, and in the past years I've placed second twice and third once, so this year I'm hoping for first. Wish me luck guys, I've already got two people from Lousiana calling me on my cell to wish me luck. [img]smile.gif[/img] Powerlifting is one of my passions, so this is a huge deal for me.

You'll do well. Pray before the match, or pysch yourself up, but hey, you know what works for you. IW is rooting for you.

Not in an athletic competition, usually.

Alright, alright. So I didn't place first in my weightclass. I placed fourth. Yeah, yeah, too bad, too sad, blah blah. In fact, not a lot of us placed first. We had a few place first, second, and third, but just few.
But... Overall, as an entire team, we scored 97 points, enough to snag first place overall, giving us a fancy little plaque to hang next to the other two first place plaques we scored from previous competitions. I don't think anyone expect the outcome. Thanks for all the good luck wishes guys, I've got a second one coming up in February, so maybe I will do better in that one. [img]smile.gif[/img]
