My first fun sunday(strongman style)

[OreoPL]

well today i trained events for the first time. what a fun adventure it was. 95 and sunny covered in gnats and sweat. i did good mornings first as my ME move of the day made a 10 pound PR on GMs normal bent knee arch back shouldr width stance. then off to the events i went.

GMs 275x1
Atlas stone 10 reps with 175 stone onto 55gallon drum with tire on top
tried my 216 stone 3 times got it up on my thighs bout couldnt get it on the barrel.
Sled drag 100ft 276 pounds followed up immediatly with 100 ft 400lbs in wheel barrel, i was ready to drop .
i then went into ohp my first time ever doin them. i managed only 95 2 sets of 5 but its a start. i have never cleaned a weight before so i had to get taht down first.

was very fun i cant wait till next sunday to do it again add some more weight. i am working on getting a tire that should be fun. well just thought i would let you know i joined the craziness that is known as strongman now and i love it.
