Update from Kansas City

Yesterday was a long and tiring day competing from 8 AM until 4 PM but its finally done! I feel pretty good, things went well and I had a fairly large and rather raucous group of supporters following me around all day cheering me on which was awesome. We will find out results tonight at the medal ceremony around 7 PM Central time. Last night was our banquet with all of the business and industry members and sponsors. I got to spend a good amount of time chatting with Tim Zilke, President of ASE as well as the president of NATEF, former NASCAR driver, team owner, and ESPN commentator Rusty Wallace, and several Snap-On higher ups. Pretty fun stuff. I'll post results as soon as we find out.
