Event hosted and arranged by Transition Fitness, Montrose. Full details and sign-up at their Instagram page - https://www.instagram.com/transitionfitnessmontrose
Event 1 - Bags, Duck and Stairs
Athletes run out 10m, pick up sandball and return to put it over the hurdle. Then back out 5m to pick up a sandbag and put over the hurdle. Once both bags are completed, a ring handled stone must be duckwalked 10m before going up three steps on the powerstairs.
Time is given once athlete has reached top step and taken their hands off the ring. If event is not completed, then split times will be given after both bags and the 10m duckwalk (before stairs)
90 second time limit
Event 2 - Ringed Stone Reps
A ringed handle stone is sitting either side of you and you must stand up straight and lock out while holding the stones. Once down command is given, then you must lower, being in control at all times, to the ground, before starting a 2nd rep. Just keep going until you can't do anymore or the time runs out.
Any drops or thumps down with the stones will be a no rep. Side lift only, no straddles
75 second time limit
Event 3 - Shoulder, Chest and Wind
At station 1, shoulder stone before releasing a hand to show that the stone is stable under the control of one hand. Down command is given and you can lower onto the crash pad, and move onto station 2. Pick up a sandball and stand up straight with the ball being at chest height. Down command is given, drop the ball and move to station 3. Here we are looking for a clear gap between the dragon egg and the ground to show you have lifted the full weight off the ground. Down command given once lift is completed.
Back to station 1 then station 2 and so on until you cannot do anymore or time is up.
One rep per completed lift and totaled up. Stations must be done in order and no skipping.
90 second time limit
Event 4 - Husafell Relay
First person does heavier bag from the keg and carries up/down course for 30 seconds. Once time is up, or the bag is dropped, then the distance is taken.
Everyone does this first bag. Then first person attempts the 2nd bag from the ground. Picked up and walked for as far as you can in 45 seconds, or until it is dropped.
This distance is also measured and added to the first to give you a total.
30 seconds and 45 seconds
Event 5 - Smooth Stone Barrel Run
Haven't confirmed the number of barrels, but likely between 5-7.
Athletes need to lift stones onto the barrel, ensure it is steady before moving to the next one.
All stones with be smooth, to increase the difficulty.
