Just back from unloading the kit on the inaugural Essex Strongman Comp. Big Thanks to the guys that competed today, everyone gave 110% and we were treated to some fantastic performances. The comp was pitched at guys with an eye on making some noise in the Opens next year. So here is how the score table ended. 1. Dan Bishop (Local lad - doesn't train events .... yet! Won 3 of the 6 events. Pure power - brilliant) 2. Pete Reynolds (Only his 2nd comp. powerful throughout. Great Win in the Fishing pole and Super Yoke) 3. Lawrence Browne (Leading into the last event - 16reps on the press!) 4. Steve Stanislaus (One of the lightest in the comp. amazing performance on the medley, only him and the eventual winner completed it!) 5. Dave Smith (Solid throughout. Never say die attitude on the medley. 2nd in the Back2Back tug of war. He's training with the PSMA crew so will only get better for next year. 6. Dave Thomas (Local lad - doesn't train events, Great work on the farmer to put in a solid 36.5m.) 7. John Middleton (Local lad that just enjoys getting involved. Well done mate on winning your heat in the Back2Back tug of war) 8. Nick Lay (Local lad, lightest in comp. never gave up all day despite struggling with the weights. Get your a$$ down Body Active mate and join the rest of us at Harlow's strongman gym) L to R 3rd Big Lawrence 1st Big Dan 2nd Big Pete

We will be in contact with the council very soon about next year. The DJ/Compare done a sterling job (even playing 'We are the Champions' during the award ceremony :P ) - He's in for next year. So all being well it should be a regular fixture. We had a debriefing session last night when lots of ideas were raised for future promotions. At the moment the whole strongman event is self-financed and this is not sustainable if we want to grow the event by adding more classes and prize money. All I can say is don't book your holidays for the 1st Sunday in September, unless of course it's to Sunny Essex :rn p.s. Your/our kit looked great mate! |

Best of luck with it Jason, Everyone seems to have good things to say about this comp it would be nice to see it become a regular fixture. I like the timing / nature of the comp. End of the season and a chance for lads to test their arms in a light open event prior to pushing into full opens in the coming season. |
