Ok folks I am finaslising minor detials now such as stalls on the day, and what food is being available etc etc

from you point of view what would you WANT available - not promising anything but will always listen to try and make the day good for both competitors and spectators

Hi Glen,

There are some things that you "expect" at a comp and others that are are a "bonus".

Competitor wise I think that some kind of shaded area/gazebo is just about essential at a summer comp. Things like chairs are also great but I normally take my own anyway.

Drinks are into bonus territory. I'm sure that most/all of the guys take their own anyway. Snacks(carb bars etc.) are a very nice bonus too.

You get into real bonus territory when you get goody bags. Competitors at the Unit 20 comp ( a couple of years ago got a couple of t-shirts, creatine and some APT wrist wraps in their goody backs - regardless of position.I believe Sugden's Strongest Man had a great bag of goodies for the athletes too.

A t-shirt, to remember the occasion, is always nice. It probably falls somewhere between "expect" and "bonus" territory.

Just my £0.02

The two that worry me is the tyre and log.

Im only going to get to use a log once before the comp, and i wont be able to practice the tyre.

Deadlift will probably be my best event. 15+ and ill be happy. hit 12 in training last week.

The drag and carry medley could go either way depending on implements etc.

cheers pete - t-shirt, drinks ect where a given - at present I am trying to sort out more stuff within the goody bags and seeing whether we can get either free or heavily discoutned meals for all the competitors as well as a few extras

we will see
