2023 Michigan Indoor Senior Olympics – Macomb Community College – 14Nov’23

Thanks to the early scheduling of the Michigan Indoor Senior Olympics, I was the first to kick off the 2023-24 indoor season for the club!

Going into the meet, I had two weeks to get prepared after a nice vacation down in the Caribbean. It was my first time touching a shot since August and my practice distances weren’t very good, so I didn’t have high expectations. Fortunately, I ended throwing better than expected with two throws over 12m. I didn’t break 40ft but my best throw of 12.17m (39’ 11”) exceeded the US Master’s All-American standard and was good for first place in the 55-59yr age group.
