I've been lifting weights, powerlifting and strongman since I was in high school. I've been at it 20 years now. Always wanted to compete in highland games. I just competed in West Valley Heavy Events in Caldwell, Idaho this past weekend. I'm 5'10" 240lbs. and 35 years old will be a masters before long.

I competed with my brother in the Novice division. I had only 3 weeks to train on the implements and managed 4th place out of 7 competitors. Here were my numbers roughly. I don't have the exact numbers till results are posted.

Weight over bar: 13 feet with 42lb. implement (2nd best throw in novice)
Braemar stone: 23 feet with 24lb. stone
Open stone: 26.5 feet with 16lb. stone
Light WFD: 36 feet with 28lb. implement
Heavy WFD: 26 feet with 42lb. implement
Light hammer: 68 feet
Heavy hammer: 50 feet (2nd best throw in novice division)
Caber: 14 foot caber turned 11:45, 1:00, 1:00
Sheaf: 18 feet

I hope to compete again in september and put up some much better numbers with more experience and time.
