This is one of the more memorable years with the break-a-thon for me. Mostly because I spent some time with students and holding the boards for them to break. It was interesting to see the techniques they used, what worked and what needed more work, or a simple tweak. It was fantastic to see the joy on their faces when they broke the board. It was also the first time attempting to break a board post surgery. All in all it went well. Of course there is always room for improvement, but it went better than I was expecting to be honest.
I was fairly happy with my results. 11 board’s broken, including one wood board, which felt great. I even attempted a double strike. It was not entirely successful, but it felt good, and I received some good feedback, and have some ideas to help make it work for the next attempt.
My body faired pretty well, which was promising. I only tweaked my knee once, and only ended up with one bruised area from the double strike attempt. Although my bruise wasn’t really picture worthy, I named her Talula. After a couple days she was feeling much better.
Numbers were a bit low this week due to time constraints at work, with a busy week.
