Comments: Wow, this was tough! We were dying! Just to put things in perspective, one of the teams reported 444 ball slams (and we had 51!!). Oh well. We were concerned we wouldn't finish the "buy-in" part to get to the partner ball slams, so just getting any was a victory. Carolyn and a really nice guy helped us with our kipping pull-ups afterward (it was nice not to have to rush out of there). Carolyn suggested I use a band to work on getting the kipping motion down, which I did, and I really think it helped. I think that toward the end I was really getting the motion. It just felt right. I want to practice that whenever I can. Baby steps....baby steps.
