        Great choice. If Ruth keeps it up, she will go down as one of the best women lifters EVER in the USAWA.

          Oh but I have a long way to come close to Noi Phumchaona.

          Noi competed for 18 yrs. I can only hope that I will still be competing at age 63.

          She was a power athlete whereas I am into strength. Thus I won’t be the one to break her C&J and snatch type of records. Along with all her USAWA records, she still holds the Pan Am Masters WL records in the snatch and C&J. Lastly she is in the USAWA Hall of Fame and OH WL Hall of Fame.

          I wish I knew why she stopped lifting because she would have been a valuable resource for advice. Fortunately I know Denny but it is not the same as having another women especially one in my weight class.

            And I must add that she won 5 Worlds and 12 National champs. I believe there is a huge difference between lifters who just do RB and Postals and those who put themselves out-there by competing in Nationals and Worlds.
