Kong Fest
I Finished 11th this year down from 4th last year.  Snatch improved from 255 to 275 (due to specializing for the last six months) King Kong time went from 3:20 to DNF (due to the before mentioned specialization.)

I was thrilled with the way this competition came together.  We have an outstanding group of people here at EVCF.  The work that they did allowed me to host and compete in the event.  Thank you to Jeremy Galo for running scoring, Chris Falkner for running the webcast, Bill Laskowski for managing equipment, Becky Vasey for providing food, Krystal Rodriguez for running check-in and Matt Foreman/Tiffany Hendrickson for the commentary!   Thank you to everyone who volunteered!

The EVCF Competitors had an awesome showing!

3:00 to Establish Max Shoulder to Overhead
340/355x/355x/355x
(made the mistake of changing strategy. the plan was 340/350/360.  instead I jumped to 355.  had it locked out overhead 3 times, right arm kept giving out.  this was happening in training too....was hoping it would clear up with rest)
