I took 3rd overall.
1st event - log press - 2nd place. 10 lbs out of first, and I just missed at lockout. Got 255, missed 265. One guy got 265, I tied for 2nd.
2nd event - deadlift 405 for reps- 1st place - got 18 reps, won the event by 4 reps.
3rd event - conan’s wheel - last or 2nd to last. this was terrible, and I should have pushed myself to go a little further. The 2nd event really gassed me, and I was trying to save something for the last 2 events. In hindsight, I probably could have taken 2nd or maybe even 1st overall if I had pushed this one further. The problem was that for some reason they had me going first in this event, even though I had won the previous event. That’s not what was supposed to happen.
4th event - front squat - 1st place - 395 lbs for 3rd attempt. I opened at 355, did 375 for my 2nd attempt since everyone else ran out of attempts at this weight, then just did what I needed to win with 395. Didn’t even wrap any attempt, and 395 flew up. I could have certainly gotten 415 unwrapped, and could have gone mid 400’s or so with wraps. So basically dominated this event.
5th event - hussafel stone - I put everything I had into this one. I was slow as fuck, and held on for the full 60 seconds. Got 3 laps done, which far exceeded my expectations. They didn’t end up using a TX shaped stone. Just regular Hussafels. This was a fucking beating, but I have no regrets on it. I was 2nd going into this event, and dropped to 3rd after.
Overall: Really pleased with my performance, and I know I can do better the next time. I made a ton of progress on the log over the last 6 weeks, and I should be pushing closer to 300 soon enough. I’m still dominating deadlift events, and I should be able to do so on future squat events. It’s time to really focus on moving events and get myself to at least an average level there. If I can start finishing middle of the pack on moving events, I should be able to win a show soon.
