Flexibility phenomenon story

[Alan Armstrong]

Had joined a Karate club 40 years ago. I could never get in to a full split far from it actually. Three months in to the karate classes, I was put in to a full contact tournament. Seemed very sudden but I went for it anyhow. Arrived at the building that was holding the tournament at 11:30 A.M and started stretching out. I had no idea when my turn would be to go on. Naive as could be I continued stretching off and on all day long. Finally It was my turn to fight. I did my final warm up at 7:30 A.M To my amazement, for the first time ever I could do the splits completely all the way down touching the ground. Eight hours of stretching accidentally payed off. Adrenaline, nerves, heat, anxiety, excitement, putting it all together turned out to be a gift, never to be for gotten. Do you have a flexibility story or issue with it?
