I Finally Got It!

Wow, I have been chasing this 20L/20R 24kg snatch (40 nonstop) for a long time now. A year? Probably about a year. I got it tonight! Didn't get it on video (I actually don't have a video camera) but it was witnessed by Anton.

It was really hard. At rep #30 I thought there was no way I'd make it... I'm so glad I pushed through. It feels SO good to meet a big goal.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

Even for men, 20/20 of 24kg snatch is an agony.
