Participated in my first highland games competition. Was supposed to do a day of training on Thursday but messed up the dates and missed it. Got a brief rundown before each event. Main goal was to get my hands on the implements and learn enough that I can practice the right things. Gus came out to watch for the morning. He casually palmed one of the braemer stones to some excited whispers 😂. He seems pretty keen to try out the throws too! I managed to place 3rd out of 12 though this was really a mock competition to go with the training day and I believe all but one were touching the implements for the first time. My best throws of the day were:

Light hammer: 68'

Open stone: 29' 1"

Heavy weight for distance: 18' 5"

Light weight for distance: 36' 2"

Weight over bar: 9'

Caber: 11:30

Sheaf: 16' 6"

Hammer and caber are my favorite events. The heavy weight for distance was the most challenging for me. And the two vertical throws also need alot of refining as more height was there but not the accuracy.

Cottage for the weekend. Went to the local gym and hit a bodybuilding style back workout.

Supinated ez curl rows 6 sets

Chest supported t bar rows 3 sets

Wide neutral grip lat pulldown 3 sets

Meadows row 2 sets

Cable curls/ shoulder external rotation 3 sets

Face pulls/ single arm preacher curl 2 sets

Did not track weights. Used lots of drop sets, short rests. Just chasing the pump and enjoying the novelty of having machines and a rack of dumbbells.

AM

Some KB juggling then bent a St Croix Polo 00, and failed to finish a Diamond Classic 1. I may do a strongman contest September 1 that includes a barehanded horseshoe bend. Hoping today is not reflective of my bending potential right now. The classic is usually a pretty easy shoe for me but I've probably only bent two other shoes in the last year. 

PM Back home:

Run 4km moderate pace
