Hey everyone,



I have begun my countdown... Really looking forward to this weekend.  Who will

be attending?



Chris - I don't have a video camera but some of my friends will probably be

coming to watch, so if you can get your hands on a camcorder, I have some able

bodies who will be able to tape.



Matt - Do you need any help setting up for the event?  I'm commuting from

Sacramento but I could come out early if you need an extra hand with anything.

Hi Matt and all the other STRENDISTS,



Good luck this weekend to all.  I will not be coming out.  I have been fighting

a shoulder problem for several months and my training has suffered greatly from

it.  Not sure if it is the lifting, the pole vaulting, or just old age that is

catching up with me, but whatever it is, it has sure played heck with my STREND

training and in particular my dips. My long term goal is to let this recover and

get and stay healthy, and then try hard at age 60 to do a regulation STREND and

give you guys a good record to shoot for.



Be sure to post the results.



I have a spreadsheet that lists the top 10 STREND performances in the various

age groups. Once you guys get done, I will update the list and send it out to

all.



STREND ON!



John Carmony

So I'm not really sure what is going on for this weekend. It sounds like there

are too few people to carry this event through, and Matt, who was involved in

the logistics, is not going to be able to make it. If the event still goes off,

I'll definitely be there. 

But despair not. I'm working with Matt on giving Strend a face-lift. The next

event will be something on a far bigger scale. Stay tuned!
