Ian McGregor before Nidan karate grading

I finally got around to uploading a photo of myself on this blog

The photo is of me just before going for my NiDan (2nd Black belt) in Kyokushin karate, trust me you don’t want to see what the after photo was like :-) 4 1/2 hours of very hard training.

It’s now 2 weeks later and my cracked ribs are still reminding me of that day.  My boss (and good friend) asked me when I was limping around and wincing in pain all day “was it really worth it!!”, it’s very hard to explain to someone who has not been through something like this, but yes it is!!!

I’ll be writing more about the lead-up and the grading itself on my other blog at

 Cheers

MACA
