This Friday was supposed to be the national poomsae (forms) championship in Adelaide.  Well, it still is, but not for me.  I managed to injure my back early last week (not exactly sure how, though i have a couple of likely suspicions) and it now looks like it's not going to recover in time to compete.  My physio was initally hopeful that it'd come good after a couple of days, but it hasn't improved as well as he'd hoped and it won't be up to it in time for the competition (not to mention however many hours crammed in a car seat there and back) so i've had to withdraw from that and from Mr Kang's training camp at the weekend.

The good news is that it'll be okay well in time for Korea in six weeks, so i've just got to concentrate on getting it back to 100% so i can get stuck into training with the other guys once they come back from Adelaide.  It's a pity, though - i haven't been to the Nationals before and was really looking forward to it.

Ah well, there's always next year.  And when it comes round, i'm gonna kick (imaginary) arse.  Don't you worry about that.
