Your numbers look really solid, Joe. You still competing with SPF? Do you get to see our friend Ms. Vikki?

Thanks, I am still lifting in the SPF though I haven’t seen Vikki in forever. I’m going to do a meet in Mobile in late May/early June if it ever gets scheduled. I think she’s probably getting ready for SPF/GPC Worlds.
