After over a year of uncertainty, I was finally cleared today to compete in the pole vault.

Today is a GREAT day. I have the notorious bad back all vaulters have, doubled,

but the doc said that there is no reason to stop me from vaulting!

I am so happy. I was vaulting on a national (with Junior Olympics from 2000-2003) level since high school, so female vaulters, look out late this season!
