irish masters

Headed to Dublin with Sean and Colin. None of us have been in good form recently so we were not sure what to expect
Sean
Snatch 60x 60 63 C+j 65 70 75xx. Sean recovered well after a dodgy first snatch but found the going tough in the cj due to fatigue.
Colin
Snatch 70 75 80x c+j 90 95 100. Colin lifted well within himself and has set himself up for the coming year. he was unlucky not to get his 80 snatch
Brendan
Snatch 70 75 77 c+j 95 100 105x. I needed 105 to qual for the euro masters which hopefully will happen next year. 1st time I ever got 3 snatches. the 1st 2 i had to fight hard to save. the 77 felt smooth. Over all very pleased considering the lack of lifting and form recently.

we enjoyed spending time with the legend Lawrence who kept us enthused with stories of his weightlifting exploits. also met a few more sound guys, shane and trevor.

Now I need to find a good programme to take me up to the ULSTER open in may 29th. Another ambition is to get myself into better shape and start losing the ugly gut.
