PRs, Stickers, Contests!

Great Saturday morning as there were PRs galore as well as nice, albeit somewhat complicated, contest to round out the morning.

Ben hit a PR 90 in snatch for a good sticker. Just has to keep hips low to make solid improvement in the CJ. Megan hit a PR in the front squat, going over her previous PR by 2 kilos and hitting it for a double. And, Keith tied individual PR in the lifts (70/87) and hit a PR total (157).

The contest had 2 ways to score points for the 2 contested lifts. In the unlikely event of a tie, a strongman medley on the soccer field. 7 contestants for $8 in the pot and 3 cupcakes. Who would call home to say he or she has cupcakes?

In the vertical bar lift, Steve and Fred tied for first in absolute total with Steve getting the nod because of lower bodyweight. They did 310 pounds.
Ron (270), Ben (220), Garrett (205), Keith (190), and Megan (190) rounded out the rest.
Percentage of bodyweight had it Ron, Steve, Keith, Garrett, Megan, Ben, Fred.

Steve and Ron were separated by one point with 3 tied for 3rd place.

On to the bent over row with a pause. Proving to be somewhat tricky and was not without protests from some.

Fred and Steve mastered the pause to tie for absolute first. Ron bowed out due to time constraints and Ben, Keith, Megan, and Garrett rounded out the rest.
Relative bodyweight, Keith, Steve, and Megan went 1, 2, 3.

Final result was:
Steve 22 points
Keith 14
Fred 11
Ron & Ben tied with 10
Garrett 9
Megan 8

Next week will have another crazy, fun contest with pride, money, and cupcakes on the line. Should be fun.
