Thanks Dan and Ben!

Before I get started on the write up I would just like to say a big thank you to everyone at the junction gym for a super smooth comp and letting me compete at short notice, thanks everyone for cheering me on and for the advice on events Mick! And special thanks goes out to Mr France for letting me go with him to the comp and even tho I stole 2nd place, he was a true gent and good sport about it! Top bloke!

JUNCTION GYM COMP 27 Jan 2013
CAR SQUAT 250 kg
I only managed to push out 4 reps on this and was hoping for better. When you got in the right position it seemed to move better but couldn't get the sweet spot. And rested for too long after 1st reps, always a mistake I think! I was about 4th or 5th on this.



OVERHEAD MEDLEY
I almost missed catching the clean on the axle, log went up better than I thought it would, went into the keg thinking about it too much, ( if u watch the vid I can't decide where to put my hands and keep fannying around!) Lol! But a shout from Mick kicked me into gear and i just monged it up hixxy style! Onto the 65 kg dumbell which I knew would be ok to do, then onto the 80 and almost lost it at the top but just managed to keep the balance! I think Mick B and myself we're the only ones to do all implements. 2nd Place on this!



CONANS CIRCLE
Having only trained this once with Shanemongtomdaley last year was a bit worried if I'd even pick it up. Was told by mick to pick it high so I did! Got to a quarter turn and realised I couldn't breathe! I was determined to do at least a single revolution, which is what I managed. This is the closest I've ever been to passing out! It was worth 2nd place! Found out after it had been miss loaded and was 380kg.. Eeekkk!



DEADLIFT MEDLEY
Not normally a good event for me but felt strong after pulling the axle and was certain from then on i could do the rest of the lifts, i fannied about on the last lift (coz i put straps on just to make sure i got it) I managed to put in a good enough time to get 3rd place!



ATLAS STONES
Going into the last event I think I was 1 point ahead of Ben. Ooooh! Close stuff! I was putting my tacky on whilst Ben had his turn so was unsure of his time and how many he'd done. So went into it with an open mind and just do them as fast and safe as I could. The first 3 went up great but just couldn't do the 4th as I couldn't get any grip. My time was good enough for 1st place!



A well deserved win for Mick Brown as he smashed every event! I just edged Ben out by a couple of points to get second and a great performance put in by a fellow SAS dude Mr Ben 'The Flash' France. Overall, i had a great day competing, cheering on, seeing old friends and meeting new people! What more could you ask for on a cold winters day! A fabulous winter warmer!

THE END!
