MetRx All American Challenge - February 15, 2007

by Ben Hanson

This weekend is the MetRx All American Strongman Challenge at the FitExpo in Pasadena, CA. Though you probably don't have a ticket to see the event live, you can still follow all of the action (almost) live right here.

What is the MetRx All American Strongman Challenge, you ask? Well, it's only one of the most highly anticipated strongman contests in North America with 21 of the top Pro strongmen from the U. S. of A. vying for an invite to a World's Strongest Man Super Series. The top 6 finishers are guaranteed a spot in one of the WSM Super Series Grand Prix events, which ultimately serve as a qualifier for the 2007 World's Strongest Man.

Here are the events:

Friday 2/16 (3:00pm)
Farmers Walk
Super Yoke
Truck Pull

Saturday 2/17 (4:00pm)
Log Press
Stones
Deadlift Medley

Sunday 2/18 (11:30am)
Overhead Press Medley
Farmers Walk Medley

Check back frequently to see top US strongmen, such as Kevin Nee, Karl Gillingham, Mark Philippi, Josh Thigpen, and Dave Ostlund battle for top honors.
