It's grueling, but I love doing the figures, so it's worth it. I'm hoping to get through 4th.

Thanks
manleywoman!I remember talking to you at AN about figures and how you'd passed your 2nd - congrats! I'm sure you'll get through your 4th with no problem. And that's great that you'll be covering both forward and backward loops! I wish they would have incorporated loops into MITF somehow. There's nothing in MITF that can teach that kind of control.
I was lucky that our patch session was at 7:45am and not 5am. I remember the 5am days though!

Does anyone join you at 5am, or are you out there alone?
