World Championships 2008...

We spent the weekend at the American Taekwondo Association World Championships in Little Rock Arkansas this week. It was a great time, got to visit some Arkansas relatives and have some fun.

Mary competed for world champ sparring but did not place. Good job this year of getting into the Top Ten best which is what is required to participate in the competition.

Me Mary and Morgan got the new tournament year off to a great start. I had 3rd in forms and sparring, Morgan had second in forms and Mary started with a bang in the adult rings for the first time with a first in forms and second in sparring.


Here's me getting the pick on a three way tie for forms, they make you do in again to break the tie. Doing it twice for an old guy is victory anywhere!

By the way, I'm state champ in forms this year, decide by points, no competeing required. Thank you, I'll take it, just means I have a better form than the other 7 guys my age in Texas.


Here's Morgan breaking a four way tie for second.

More pictures and video to come this week.
