I am Keelin Godsey an out FTM elite athlete. I compete in the hammer throw. I competed on the US national team for the Pan-american games, and narrowly missed making the Olympic team. Up till now I have competed as a woman and was pre-everything. I am now currently taking Testosterone, started 8/7/12, and am navigating the world of sports specifically track and field as a transitioning athlete. I will be trying to make it as a male hammer thrower.

USATF Nationals
I got 5th!!! I was seeded 10th, and I placed. That is the highest place I have ever gotten at this meet, it was great. I didn't have my best throw, but I held my own. I made some money and got a medal YAY!!!!
You had a GREAT performance, considering all your recent personal life trauma. What was up with Loree, who did well in 2008, and Erin; such a low mark and then passing? Even Loren was a name I recognized from reading previous Nationals results, and you beat her. And you beat those three college throwers....
Why not say to yourself on an approaching job interview, "I am a strong, trained, capable physical therapist, I am a NATIONAL competitor."
Congratulations :)
