Englands Strongest Man



Nice easy trip down really, had one little hiccup but nice and quick and alot of talking of Strongman related issues. Joni was a great great help all day along with Carl both looking after me and Robs needs. Joni did take the piss once though, not happy with my choice of music on the way back. (Journey) He is Finnish after all. Lol

Surprising never got that much to eat that morning. just 6-8 bananas and some fluids.

First Event
Timber Walk 320-340kg (12 Sec 4th)?

Could have gone alot faster but took it carefully the first 10 metres or so as alot of the lads were taking too a big a stride and catching the small frame we where in. Once i opened the legs up a bit it was fast an easy. Actually beat Felix which was strange. But defo not what i wanted capable of much more on this, esp from training, but as always means f**k all!, unless you do it in a comp.

310-320kg Axel Deadlift (Proper low deadlift)
2 reps (close on 3)

1 lads missed the lift and another 2 only got 1 so happy with two, as next place up was 5 i think. Tec ok, but couldn't get legs into as suit on, belt on, and then trying to put straps on. Lol

Log Lift (on a real Proper looking Log)
140kg easy, just learning the log
150kg easy, even though i used my head
160kg Very close but still a mind mental head f**k for me. 155-170kg all feels the same to me. (issue is being addressed)

someone failed the 140kg and a few the 150kg i think?
Think Westbury won on a (JC style) Press of 165kg

Car hold (20 sec ?)
f**king awful mistake i made, pick up was easy, weight felt easy-ok, but as i picked up (hook grip) my left hand slipped right onto the thumb from the get go, so was just hanging in form there. Was going to ask could i put down and try again. Lol Surprised alot of low-ish numbers on this, Felix did an good time of 58-59 sec with Terry i think around the 40 mark ?

Conan's Wheel

Pick was low and weights very swingey, but seem to good-ok on this event now.

Pick up was really easy, nice hold too, fast 3/4 of the way and all of a sudden it was on the bottom of my arms and i had to struggle a bit to get it just over 360 (1 turn) It slipped slightly but not sure why, as it seemed real ok up until that point. More practice on this event and i could be pretty decent at it i think. Saddler made a easy 3+ turns.


Stones (150,160,170,180kg onto Barrels)
Think these were real "McGlashen Stones" very smooth.

nice ok time through the the first 3, and easy pick up on the forth and stupid mistake (on camera) that i tell everyone not to do, i do. Never got it high enough on chest and didn't have tacky there. Stone just touching the rim but not loaded. Had a quick 2nd lap, but no time to lift.

6th overall, really loved it, made up for the opportunity and glad i made a decent showing. Uk's next.

Terry
Felix
Saddler
Westbury
Frampton
ME
Si Flint
Lee Bowers
Gardner
