Alright, so I got talked into doing this by my fellow two throwers this morning. It'll be interesting as we'll cover the 3 weight classes. It'll also be interesting because after doing this Friday, we turn around and travel up to Tulsa the next day to get settled in to compete in the Tulsa Highland Games on Sept 16th.

The only event here that troubles me is the truck pull as I've never attempted to pull anything remotelly that heavy.

On a side note, I'm looking to break a year long streak of hitting 3rd place in the Highland Games and get 2nd or 1st in Tulsa.

I'll keep my fingers crossed for you! Figuratively speaking, that is. Training with crossed fingers is only going to be bad news. ;)

Seriously, good luck! :)

Wow, doing a strongman comp then throwing 2 days later? Surely that's not conducive to you getting a first in the throwing comp!
