Competition Retrospective

While dabbling in a lot of individual and team sports over the years, I wanted to put together a little compendium inspired by the Massenomics crew who has competed in 20 different strength sports competitions.  My strength sports clocked in at (8) Strongman, Powerlifting and Highland Games events.  I could add another (8) Grip Sport events.  After that, most of my personal competition has been endurance sports (swim-bike-run) and the CrossFit Open.  I have dabbled in team sports in intramurals, corporate and rec leagues (basketball, softball, flag football).  I have recently tried Ultimate Frisbee and Hurling.  I have a well documented SCUBA history and have been skiing off and on since I moved to Colorado.

I have never participated in an Archery or Tennis tournament despite participating there also.
