yesterday, and it's just starting to sink in!!!

Anyway, thought I'd share some pics. We took a ton of them but I only got so many so far as coach has all the rest. But yea...

Hanging out with Russ Anber





zomg I know right. it's Russ Anber!!!!










Time to fight!!!





























And that's it really.

It's kinda weird feeling. I set winning nationals as a goal, and now that I got that I feel a little bit empty somehow. Strangely i think because not sure what's next. The Pan Am games I guess and time to think about bigger things, tours and such. The Olympics would be crazy hard to do, in that i'll only be 17 by then. But I am going to try.

As an aside I found out I get a cheque in a week or 2 for a min. 8 or as high 10 thousand from the government for winning gold. wtf? really? Sweet! I seriously had no idea but I guess they started rewarding gold medals at national level in our sports program to encourage people to strive for it. So that's a nice surprise.

Anyway, thought I'd share with you guys, cuz this is my home boxing website and I worked hard to get here and overall, it feels pretty damn good.

Friggin Great for the national championship!!! How did it ended? K.O? Unanimous Decision? BEside, for the check, good to see that now they are trying to give a bit of support to our athletes for performing.
