1st Place: Baltimore Lindy 500

This weekend I competed in the Amateur Invitational Jack and Jill at the Baltimore Lindy 500. There were approximately 40 competitors that were hand-picked from neighboring states to participate. I made it to the finals (top 5 guys and gals) and was partnered with kerry – who I was just meeting for the first time. No sooner than we’d finished shaking hands were we swinging-out at 190 BPM. When the dust settled, my partner and I were heralded as champions.

My souvenirs are a wad of prize money, lucky #27, and this epic photo:

1st place finish!
