I won my Pro Card Sunday!

[Smokinal]

I started competing a few years ago after I recovered from 3 surgeries in 3 years. I have been doing Men's Physique division and had a few good showings but I came in really nice this last show and took 1st in the 2 classes I entered; Men's 40+ and Open 5-9 and Under.

 

And I ended up coming in second in the Overall out of all the Physique competitors (about 9)  And the first place Overall was a kid in his 20's; so at 49...I'll take that all day long.

 

 

But the best part was my son did this one with me; it was his first. He did great. He came in 2nd in the 2 classes he entered. He did Novice and Open 5-10 and over. And he only came in 2nd to the guy who ended up taking the Overall so he was very happy with his placings.

 

 

Very fun day!
