Hey, Eddie,

I couldn't deadlift 661 with a hoist! Nice job.

That is awesome!! Congratulations. I hope that when I reach that age

(in several decades) that I can even match a fraction of that

performance. Well done.

I echo the congrats. Eddie is improving all the time - considering

his recent injury this is simply exceptional.

Way to go Eddie!

Thank you everyone. It certainly was not what I had hoped for especially after

not making my 601 squat but I am certainly grateful to God for being able to

come back and compete again. The meet was in a fantastic venue, the judging was

very strict (USAPL style) and the people there were an absolute joy to compete

and interact with.
