I will be getting a flight back to Glasgow at 7.30 ish from either stansted or luton. Which is easiest to get to at the time in the morning. Probably going to have to be there for 6am. Scott | ||

Are we thinking of having a night out after the event? | ||

Looking forward to it. 4 out of the 5 events should quite good for me. On the other hand, I'm expecting about 90kg on the max log. | ||

Trophy Hunter Member 743, 3329 posts SQ 230, BP 130, DL 300660.0 kgs @ 118kgs UnEq | since i asked the question... ill answer for myself. Today was my first time trying my hand at any events. I got 95kg on a 13 inch log no problem, but couldnt lock out 100 after 3 attempts. I dont know if a smaller log is easier to press or what? but the cleans were easy. I got 20 reps on the dead. 11 seconds for the farmers. didn't have a sandbag, but i did the 70kg farmer and keg in 27 seconds. 280kg Tyre - i just practiced some technique, but it was easy enough to be honest. Where is everyone else standing? Scott | ||
