Beast of the East

The Beast of the East was a great weightlifting meet, good location and a great group of lifters. Clarke competed in his second meet and kicked ass!! He hit a meet PR snatch of 60kg, life-time PR in Clean and Jerk of 82kg and a PR Total!! Great Job Clarke

I'm back up to speed after my injury, I can finally say I'm not longer rehabbing my wrist injury, I hit 80kg snatch and a 98kg C&J, while was a total of 12kg over my last meet total. Once again thanks to Gary V. and Team CT.
