This is the weekend I've been waiting for since the beginning of summer. At 12:30pm Steve and I drove up to Santa Cruz for the 20th Annual Jiu Jitsu U.S. Open.
I haven't competed in about 7 years. I gotta say, I'm a little nervous. My friend Bernard has his match in the next 30 mins, and my match will be sometime around 11:30am Sunday morning.
I don't have to really worry about making weight tomorrow morning. I'm in the 181 to 195 division, and right now I'm walking around at 185 pounds. This means I can have a nice breakfast tomorrow morning, and I can even eat a little before my match takes place. Not having to worry about making weight is a huge relief. I've been eating good the last few days and staying hydrated. I feel pretty strong and I'm ready to get this done tomorrow.
I'm really looking forward to a huge dinner once Bernard is done with his match.
I've worked really hard the last 4 months and plan on giving a really hard fight to the guys I get to compete with tomorrow. I can't wait to get on the mat and get to work.
Until next time...
KEEP RUNNING!!!!
