Phoenix Open (4/28): I dropped from Senior 1 to Adult. No one else signed up for Senior 1/Blue/SuperHeavy and there wasn't anyone registered for Master/Blue/Super. Only one person in Adult/Blue/Super division, so what the heck. That should qualify me for a fairly full Adult open class. Looking forward to mixing it up with the young bucks.
Grappling X, San Diego (5/6): I dropped from Heavy (201+) to Light Heavy (181-200). Grappling X lets you weigh in without a gi and 24hrs before fight time. I woke up the last two mornings at 208.0. I figure I can drop 7+lbs in 15 days. I would have been among the lightest of the 201+ division; a division without an upper weight limit. Not ideal, but I didn't think I had a chance at Light Heavy. Weight progress is going well so I'm really looking forward to mixing it up with the faster Light Heavy group.
I was feeling well enough to hit the mats today, but couldn't. Life interrupted so I handled my responsibilities and took the missed mat time in stride. Strength and conditioning tomorrow and then BJJ again on Saturday morning. Can't wait!
The End (for Now?)
