Just Sayin'

Just want to say that I am pretty damn proud of myself.
Last night after a two hour sparring and stress test I earned my yellow belt (First Rank) in Muay Thai. It was extremely difficult and I was literally exhausted to tears by the end. But I was on fire! By the end of the testing I had burned close to 4,000 calories! My punching, my kicks, my defense and all of the crazy stress testing in between... I held my own and crushed my goal! Onto to the next 3 months of curriculum, two more stripe tests and Red belt is next! :smile:

    Please toot away! You earned it, so by my deduction you deserve to! If you won't, I will for you. Toot! Toot!

    Thanks all! I'm going to keep going and dedicate myself to the art. Another three months and three more stripe tests and I can rank test for my Red belt! 6-ranks after that will be black and that test involves stuff like quarter mile sprint under a minute - 100 push ups followed by 100 pull ups... really difficult, but I can DO IT!
