Morattigirl's Metal

[morattigirl]

Hows the body feeling after your most awesome efforts there chick? :clap:

Coming right now Steak, had such a great time! To be honest I wasn't gonna compete in the Highland Games as I was pretty unsure and had done absolutely NO training, but glad I did now

Hawkes Bay Highland Games 23/04/11

3 Attempts at each event, best result recorded....

Shotput

7.5 metres

Weight for Height

7 metres

Farmers Walk 50m (about 40kg each side I think)

26.61 sec

Caber Toss(judging on closest landing to 12'oclock)

5 to 12

Had an absolute blast, the one I found the most challenging was the weight for height. That weight was bloody heavy! and then trying to toss it up over your head :shock:

Shotput I wasn't really nervous about but the Farmers Walk, I didn't even think I would be able to lift off the ground. Definatley surprised myself!

Caber Toss wasn't as bad as i thought it would be, caber was actually pretty light. it was just a matter of keeping the balance and tossing straight

Had a great day, got to meet a few of the Powerhouse Boys inc Drizzt. Awesome bunch of people and look forward to seeing ya's again 8) :grin:

How many girls were competing?

[HarryB]

Awesome effort MG!!! Now post some vids!

[drizzt]

Nice to meet you MG, and awesome showing on the Sat :clap:

How many girls were competing?

Just MG, but the way she was throwing the implements around like toys I doubt most ladies would've challenged her anyway! Almost a perfect throw on the Caber too :nod:

Awesome effort MG!!! Now post some vids!

I've got a little bit of stuff from the Highland games, which I think includes a few vids of MG so I'll post up in here when I've put that vid together.

[teamfatboy]

Wow, great work MG :salute:

[bar-belle]

Wow, great work MG :salute:

[Shutupandsquat]

You're a beast for your size, Jess!

I don't know a shit load about the farmer's walk, but that seems quick!

I think it's unfortunate how you were the only female competitor so you had no women to compete with. :evil:

[Viking Power]

Good stuff strong dude.... 8) :clap: :clap:

[morattigirl]

Thanks heaps my fellow peeps! That'd be cool Drizzt if you got some footage, cheers (feel free to leave out my first attempt at the caber lol :oops: )

SAS: Farmers Walk... yeah dude I've never done them before in my life, hell I wasn't even sure I was gonna be able to pick it up so to be able to finish I was just stoked!

Only lady....yup was just me so yeah I was guaranteed to win :oops: but in saying that I did give it my all and at the end was a bit gutted to not have any other women to compare myself to... just to see how bad or good I did but ah well hopefully next year 8)
