Beginning two long endeavors this year.
1. Becoming UltraStrong. A concept I made-up to test myself. Compete and not zero any events in an open strongman event on a Saturday, then complete a 50 miler (ultra marathon) on a Sunday. I did ultras in my 20s and competed in two strongman competitions last year.
2. Reading and writing an essay on all the books in my library; roughly 300 books.

- digdugdirk 4y agoGotta say, I absolutely love the UltraStrong concept. Are you being particularly selective about the strongman events you're entering? I've come across a few that have one or two events where even the opening weight/implement might cause issues for anyone trying to run the next day, let alone run an ultramarathon.
- jriot 4y agoThanks! My only requirement is they have a stone event. I don't like them but when people think strongman they think atlas stones. Also needs to be in the open category; I can enter the masters division in 2.5 years but I feel that would be cheating as the weights are significantly less. I believe I have ~7 years to complete (45) this goal as age will become a factor in doing both at once.
