Enjoyable competition yesterday. Mr Preece sure does like to make the events hard!
That's the way it should be anyway.
TRUCK PULL (slightly uphill) 1 st place.
Only managed about 9.5 m and as I was 2nd on I was a little concerned. Anyway in the end it was enough!
WAGON TYRE DEADLIFT (260 KGS) 1 st place.
I was last on so I knew what I needed to win. Big Lee doing us both a favour stopping at 9. Did 10 reps but had bags of time left to do more.
THICK HANDLED 130 KGS FARMERS. 20 M. 1st place.
Tripped up about 1 metre from finish. Went again and finished in the quickest time. Felt like I was going over for a try!
LOG PRESS 115 KGS C+P. Joint 1 st.
First 3 reps flew but just got the 4th and just missed the 5th. Lack of c+p work didn't help here because I was really blowing out of my arse. Mark's log has handles which are a few inches wider and I always find this harder anyway.
SHIELD CARRY (190 KGS) 20 M COURSE. 2nd place.
Made 2 laps. Really messed up my 2nd turn almost tripping up over the cone. Hammies were feeling really tight by now so didn't see the point of risking another torn muscle so I bailed out.
ATLAS STONES 120 KGS AND 130. ONTO BARRELLS 15 M APART. 2nd place
Got 11 reps. Should have done more really but conditioning let me down here.
Got 1 st overall and had an 8 point lead over Lee B who performed well, much better than the Wythenshaw heat. His deadlift looked solid, he could of managed a good few more reps. The farmers which gave him problems last time he completed with only 1 drop and looked quick on the stones getting 10 reps.
The final looks like it's going to be a good one with possible entrants being Mark Felix, Mark Westaby, Rob Framton and a competitor from Eastern Europe.
I need to pull my sock's up big time so I don't show myself up because there's some quality lads who have got through the qualifiers also.

Thank's fella's! Need to do more event work me think's.
Tony - No daft injuries! LOL
Defo did the easier heat of the 2, no disrespect to yesterdays competitors. I would have had to perform better against the likes of Jack, Nathan, Shawn and Scot to keep up!
