Dancin’ shoes
Finally, the proof that Hale’s been looking for. Proof that I like boys.
Or I’m showing off my new wrestling shoes. No, that’s not me in the picture.
I bought them on Friday to help me train with my injured toes. Me second-smallest toe on my left foot is still very sore. I think it’s still broken. Unfortunately the only way to heal a broken toe is to rest it, but with the Nationals less than two weeks away I’m trying to get as much mat time as possible.
They’re very light and already have helped me with my confidence “shooting” (driving forward, dropping down and attacking both legs for a double-leg takedown) while injured. Thanks Dan Gable!
Are you “fighting” in the Nationals?
If so, do you have any details of where and when?
Yeah I’m fighting as a heavy weight (80-90kg) white belt. This means I’ll be fighting guys that are holding off from going to blue before the competition (so they’re be at a blue level, but want to compete at white this time, getting their belt just after the comp).
It’s in Melbourne on Saturday 16th of this month.
If nothing else I’ll be able to say I once fought for an Australian title ;)
I have no illusions - my goal is to last 30 seconds, when we have five minute rounds. Aim low I say ;)
What time u on at ?
Not sure what time, but I might know closer to the day. Either that or it’ll be one of those things that I find out on teh day.
