Hi everyone. Well, the day finally came. This past Saturday was the competition in Madison.
It was so much fun. It was alot harder than Vince thought it would be. But he now
knows what are his strong points and his weak points. Some of these events are
impossible to train for. It was a very interesting group of guys there, too. But,
everyone was so nice and supportive of Vince, so that was good. I was real nervous the day before and the morning of. But once we got there, all of my nervousness went away. It was replaced by
excitement! We couldn't wait for this thing to start. Nicolas was so proud of his dad. He followed him around everywhere. He was constantly taking pictures of Vince, himself, the sky, etc.
This was hard for Vince, but he never, never gave up! I was certainly a beaming wife that day!!!!
I really can't express how proud I am of him!!
He is already starting to train for next year. We are certainly going to look into buying a " pull sled " that he can attach weights to and pull it around for practice. Plus, other things that will help him improve.
So here are his scores. He placed 37 out of 45!!!
This one is called the Log Press!! He beat his own record. He lifted 235lbs. A new PB!!!!
The next 2 are the Sled Pull. They were 565 lbs. that he had to pull 75 feet.
He pulled it 17 feet, 10 inches.
This one was the Tire Flip. The tire weighed 600lbs. He was able to flip it 5 times.
The last event was the Farmer's walk. They filled those cans with concrete and then they had to walk 150 feet with them. 350lbs, Vince walked 75 feet!!
We hope everyone is doing well.
Happy Father's Day to all of you dads out there! Enjoy your special day!!
