Post by: Hedgehog on September 26, 2010, 01:07:19 PM
Rip won her class at the Olympia - totalling 1102 (500 kilos) @145  - a Wilks score of 518 or something like that.

Haven't seen any clips of the meet yet.

NO, they didn't have a senior citizen class for me  >:(

It was an open class, Middleweight (123-165) and I weighed 145.  Everything was done by Wilks formula, and I came out with a gold  8)

I managed to set all of the American sub-master records too (sub-master is right before senior citizen!).

What a fun meet... such a great experience to compete at the Olympia.  It was a long haul, and I am so glad I made it.  I hope to be able to do that meet again sometime in the future.  It was just so much fun!

Here are some of my best lifts. PRs and American records in every lift  8)

Thanks newmom... same to you!  :)

The luggage did make it back yesterday afternoon, which was great because the camera was in there (with the video clips) as well as my gold medal!

Thanks you guys for the support... esp Hedge who pretty much taught me how to lift  8)

Middleweights were 132-165.  Lightweights were 105-123.  You were impressive, as were most of the women lifting that day.

Thanks! :)

Yeah... the 132 weight class starts at just above 123 (I think?), so it's more like 124-165 for MW.  The woman who came in second was 128...and 57 years old!  She's an awesome lifter.


Had to repost the video, here's the corrected link
