That sounds awesome. I read this and got excited thinking I’m going and then I realized I’ll be in New Orleans that weekend.

[Thom Van Vleck]

I am hoping to get a good turnout at this meet-a combination of some USAWA regulars as well as some crossovers from the strongman meets in our area.

ET, You have to have patience with these all rounders when it comes to them sending in entries. They are as slow as a turle running the 100 meters! Nothing like the strongman guys – who send entries to you before you get the entry form written. My Dino Challenge is 10 days out and I’m STILL waiting on my first entry – and I’m not even worried yet! haha Al

[Anonymous]

ET,

I am probably gonna make it down, trying to figure to out if my elbow can handle the crucifix. I could just take an easy weight, but that wouldn’t make a bit of sense LOL!

Jesse

[KCSTRONGMAN]

Hope you can make it Jesse. Remember, the crucifix will likely be a very small percentage of your total.

Al-unfortunately, patient is not in my vocabulary.

ET,

Haven’t sent my entry in yet, but plan on doing so. Fun weekend, the Deanna, then the Strongman. Thought it was funny that you have the Crucifix with (Standard USAWA rules), and the Apollons lift and Goerner Stroll are also USAWA lifts now.

[Al Myers]

Now Joe you can do the Crucifix in competition in back-to-back meets (since it’s also in the Deanna) – what fun!!!

I’m waiting to see when ET is going to put his name on the list – cause we all know he LOVES THE CRUCIFIX.

[Joe Garcia]

I was telling my wife about that, having to do the Crucifix in two back to back meets. Course I won’t be alone, will I? Eric, Al, Thom, you guys are coming to the Deanna aren’t you?

[Thom Van Vleck]

I may have a strongman show that saturday night. Well, I guess I could lift in Columbia, drive to Kirksville and do a strongman show that night, then get up Sunday and go lift at Eric’s…..

[KCSTRONGMAN]

I am hoping to do the Deanna, but may have to take a token lift in the cheat curl if my elbow isnt any better by then. I do not like to lift in my own meets, but I will see.
