What year did you start competing?

Say I was wondering what year all our competitors on this Board started competing?

November 2001... but I didn't compete again 'til November 2004 again and it was b/c I mentioned to my coaches that I wanted to do a solo in the Christmas show... and was promptly overruled by both coaches to do the Skate SF competition instead!!! Since then, I have competed at least once a year. (I've given up asking them if I could do a Christmas solo since then. I KNOW what their answer would be. )
