Strongman Style: Nationals Day 1 - Tunica, MI

Well we hit the road again and this time our sights were set on Tunica, Mississippi and Memphis, Tennessee.  We were on a mission of strength - Chris was to compete in his first National Strongman Competition!  It is a grueling two day event with seven total Strongman events.  Again, we were accompanied by our dear friend Jeff Hart from Oregon which was quite delightful. I was indulged in an entire weekend of "strength talk" learning almost everything a gal needs to know about how to properly compete in each event, training philosophies, and training plan ideas.  


After a long morning the fellas had worked up quite an appetite, the only appropriate solution was Paula Dean's Buffet:  A plethora of deep fried country chicken, mashed potatoes, casseroles, cookies, treats, and any other food you can imagine drenched in butter or cheese.  In one setting I was able to exceed my calorie quota for the day like a champ.
