im back......

NWinters

New member
just got back from Clints and im spent.......although i finished last in my weight class, i managed to finish the greuling meledy. That one took a toll on alot of people. Im proud of myself and cant wait to try it again.

I got to meet alot of Elite members, Polish Hammer, T3C, Exodus, Kingc79, Cuthbert, Joker ,spatts, and Lord Suston.........you guys were awesome, and definitly the nicest people ive ever met.

Im sorry if i didnt talk much, im kind of shy, and im not a very funny person, so dont be offended and take me the wrong way.

I will post some pics soon!!!!!!!
 
That's great stuff, Winters. Shame Australia's a little far :)

Looking forward to the pics and more stories from all that attended.
 
You had a tough class. From what I saw you did really good. Finishing the medley is a huge accomplishment. That thing was rough. As long as you had fun and did your best is all that matters.
 
nwinters, u did well. showed alot of heart for sure. see u again soon,
brian
jason, u should have been there, i had a whole pitcher of margarita(except for the last bit exodus had to finish off for me) and a long island ice tea made by spatts husband:)
i did well. missed my partner for nationals:)
 
SO this contest was sanctioned? I thought you guys were just doing it for fun
 
reverexx, i got 2nd in 225's. made it to nationals:):) so did jasonaa. the guy that beat me is top of the nation, and i made him work just a little:)
 
yes, it was an nass gold level contest i believe. had 32 competitors.
vice president of nass, dione wessels was there. guy that beat me finished 4th in nationals last year, guy that won 200's is virutally never beat in the 200 class. lord suston kicked some major butt, beat a couple seasoned competitiors. 2nd place shw guy has the nass record for reps for log. lot of impressive guys there, also alot the show lots of promise if they like strongman.
definitely no losers(said that just for cuthbert)
 
thanks Shane...i hope to come back again, and i hope to find out where this strongman training facility is in Kokomo, In.
 
Winters!!!

I am proud of you for trying something new!!

BTW, I find it amazing that you weight in at 200.00lbs!!

I will get back with you shortly.

Rest up my man and get some food.
 
I just talked to Exodus and Trinity. They had a blast.

I heard about that last little bit of your pitcher to Shane. :)
...chad...
 
Exodus said he would "help me" finish it off. Next thing I knew, it was gone. He smiles normally, but not as much as he smiled last night.
 
yea that in the pic i got of everyone you can see that pitcher of margarita's in shanes hand.lol. everyone did great. yea, suston had to really kick some butt to make 2nd in his class. that was awesome. made nationals in his first contest...thats gotta feel great. nick did great too. made that viking look easy and finishing the medley was tough, especially if you havent even done it. it absolutely killed me to finish w/half a second left. 10min after i still couldnt see anything but stars and was shaking so bad i thought i was gonna pass out. my mom was like your done your gonna pass out..i said no i'm not...if i do..wake me up..i still got two more events. but i was really proud that jason and shane made it to nations. that was awesome and think i was happier when i found that out than anything. hope i have the funds to go support em in oct. cant wait
 
NWinters, you did a good job... this was definitely a TOUGH 200lb class.. now you all know why I entertained the idea of going into the 175s.

And that medley WAS tough... but fun, lol.

Hope to see some good pics/videos soon.

Cuthbert
 
Sorry I couldn't make it to the margaritas. I almost came back but after a shower and some food I could hardly move I was so tired. We will just have to drink some after Nationals. Now its time to work on that damn Viking Press.

did someone mention margaritas????.......... oh sorry, flashback from last night!!!! lol


NWinters.......... you may be shy, but you very very strong. sucks about your 1st 3 reps that didnt get counted on the viking press, but you still did great. for someone to show up and do a contest with these events and have never done any of them before, you rocked. i belive you even loaded 4 stones......... the first 2 to a 61 inch platform.......... not an easy task..

great work, i hope to see you again.
