I want to thank Brian Carroll for giving me the opportunity to be a part of Team PRS, which has been an honor. Thank you for supporting my lifting and enabling me to wear the best powerlifting gear on the planet, INZER!

I want to Zane Geeting for doing my programming up to the meet and helping me get rid of the bomb bug.

I want to thank my handlers for the day: Dakota, Dan, Cody and Bruce Mason. Without everyone’s help none of this is possible. Multiply lifting is absolutely a team effort. Chris, you weren’t there, but you’re my training partner and you contributed to this as much as anybody.

I especially want to thank my wife Margaret. Without you I wouldn’t be who I am today. Thank for standing by me and supporting me through our 15 years together. I aspire to give as much as you do. I love you.

I will post a much more detailed write-up later this week!
