We only got back last night from Poland. We had a fantastic time! Elizabeth thanks everyone for their supports, messages and phone calls Elizabeth came 7th in the WSW, and I’ll get the results up later after breakfast. The contest was amazing, really amazing, and Anetta Florczyk (winner) is an amazing athlete. David |

It's only gay if you smile during the reach-around.

An exceptional job Elizabeth and Hanne. Being the top in the world is something VERY few people will every be able to say....much less when it comes to strength. You are officially part of history. Congrat's. Dennis |

Elizabeth says thank you for all your kind comments. Quick report by David Horne If you’re interested in strongman/women then Poland is the place to go. This is a country where I watched Jarek Dymek on TV in the morning advertising VibroAction (I think), bought Super Glue with Mariusz on the front of the packaging from a supermarket in the afternoon, and then in the evening watched Aneta Florczyk on TV in Dancing on Ice. Strongman is their second sport, and from what I saw in our stay it definitely is very popular. Roman Liebrecht, Boguslaw, Team Aneta and of course all the sponsors have got to be commended on the extremely well run, fast-paced, entertaining contest. Thousands came to watch the contest, and the ones at the front never moved except for a chance of an autograph from one of the competitors for over 4 hours. With 8 events, 9 competitors, 4 t-shirt changes, and appearances by dancers there was always something going on – perfect! My piece on Elizabeth is that she was a little disappointed on some of her performances, as she knew what she did in training. Mistakes were done, and WILL be learned from. I saw a brave lady battling right to the end, even when the unexpected problems occurred. There will be another day. The events and weights were all good; it was a very well balanced contest. The competitors were super strong, very friendly and hopefully we will meet up again in the future. I haven’t got all the results (hopefully Boguslaw can send them to me), but believe me there were some incredible performances! Elizabeth got a forearm workout with all the autographs she signed, and hopefully the fans enjoyed the experience as much as we did. Many thanks to our sponsor Jackal's Gym, and to all the well wishes, messages and phone calls! Events 1. Farmers walk for distance (72.5kg each hand) 2. Conan's circle (200 kg) 3. Axle for reps (70 kg) 4. Yoke (210 kg) 5. Car Hold (about 200kg) 6. Log lift (Max) 7. Weight for height (12.5 kg) 8. Deadlift for reps (180 kg) |

I have compiled the videos we were able to capture before the battery died. I separated the videos by individual competitors and events. If I could only manage to find the video of Aneta pressing her partner, I would be very happy! You will have to scroll through our videos to see them all. There are many. http://www.youtube.com/user/StonersGym ;) |
