So, I am on my way achieving a sorta goal of mine. One of my goals was to compete at powerlifting nationals, with the ginormous goal of going there before I hit 60. Before age 60, you need a qualifying total, which I’m still not at yet. Sixty and after, you just need a 75kg qualifying total (165.3#), which, if you’re just starting out or recovering and an elderly person (heck, you can compete when you’re 101), then it could be a challenge. Anyway, I got that, so I really wanted to see if I could qualify with the minimum in my age group, 295kg. That’s been a challenge for me!

Well, my coach and I came across some big meets next year. One of them is the 2024 USA Powerlifting Master's World Cup in Memphis. The requirements are age 40+ and having been in a USAPL meet.

So I talked with my husband and I decided to do it. And I just signed up this morning. Non refundable 😅. It’s in May. 

I’m excited scared lol.

I l ready know a couple of people who are on the roster plus my sister lives there!

I like sports too. I played a bunch and still like activity of all kinds. I just don't do much of it lately!

Currently enjoying the Phillies in the playoffs. I like baseball generally. If track is on tv I'll watch that. i love races. It was my sport growing up and I can still remember the thrill of all out sprinting towards the finish line.
