Vicissitudes continue

The battle goes on.

My main sparring partner and I have been banned from unsupervised sparring at our gym after he leveled me with a body shot. To be fair, we were going hard and it was an ugly scene. We weren't wearing any sort of chest guards (generally required) and it happened in full view of the parents watching the kids doing their Tae Kwon Do (probably should have been practicing in side room out of sight). The result is essentially no opportunity to do any real intensity sparring.

and then...

I fell while practicing on a concrete floor and really banged up my elbow. Swollen for a while now, doesn't seem to be broken, but hurts quite a lot.

But I am not giving in, and I am scheduled to fight on October 18th in the Battle of Baltimore Tournament's continuous contact sparring tournament. Not giving up.
