This weekend was Battle of Vikings in the little village Eide outside Molde, on the western coast of Norway. This was a competition way out of my league, but i joined to get the experience and to have fun.
The exercises was the following:
Husafell/cross-carry: A vedge-shaped stone weighing 330lbs/150kg, no handles. Carry it for 20 meters. I didn’t really get it up and ended up at 1 meter and 70cm… Gotta train more for this i guess…
Viking press: overhead press with stones. No grips or anything like that, so hard to clean and press. I ended up at 143lbs/65kg, almost had the 176lbs/80kg, but was too much of a coward to give it the final push.
Farmers: 341lbs/155kg pr hand… Well, what can i say, this is 50-60kgs more pr hand than I ever have tried before, i managed to get it off the ground and get one step in… And I’m happy with that, getting 682lbs/310kg off the ground is far above my own expectations.
atlas stones with natural stones: managed 198lbs/90kg, 220lbs/100kg and 264lbs/120kg but 286lbs/130kg and 330lbs/150kg just got too heavy.
Carry and drag: run 10 meters, carry 176lbs/80 keg 10 meters, run 10 meters back, fetch 88lbs/40kg rock, carry back 10 meters and drag this and 110lbs/50kg plates back to the goal 20 meters away… used about 45-50 secs on this… I was totally worn out at this point, so happy that i got to the finnish line at all… 
Well, that was all! Great competition, and the more pro guys did great! Always great to compete with strong and good hearted athletes!
I’ll post pics when i get them, i didn’t have the time to take any pics, but a friend of mine did…
