We know that hindsight is 20/20. Actually that is crap. We always reminisce about how great the good old days and they were never REALLY that good anyway. Can you tell I haven't listened to a single ACDC song yet today?
As I'm getting really close to being 40 years of age and I've been involved with the sport of Strongman for more than 16 years, I am looking back and wondering what my biggest mistakes are. Partly because this is the age where you start to look back and see if you have any regrets...BECAUSE YOU AREN'T DONE YET! That and I need to look at my future and see what I can do to improve!
Being born with TALENT is a trivial concept. To be honest, I have much larger bone structures and body features than most people. Size 16 shoe, giant hands, long arms, good hand-eye coordination, etc... But my biggest asset might just be my willingness to not quit even when it really freaking hurts.
So when I was asked about my biggest mistakes in Strongman, my answer might just be something different than what you expect.
