Craig,

I actually checked before I wrote that, but didn't feel like emphasizing the "should".  If the 65' is accurate, I stand by my statement and am curious why Jeremy's WOB result is not higher.  Note that 65'=19.81m=93rd percentile for the OHS. 

I don't know anything about Jeremy beyond what you posted, but this result is about the same as Paul Ferency's best, and well over Sean Betz's current mark.

65' is awesome, especially now that i know what it's like to do that "event".  He obv looks to me like a shotputter (damn track guys), and im sure crushed everyone in the stone that day!  Hammer pretty good too.

Wow, i guess I need to keep up on my reading, I didn't even notice all this was posted, haha.  Craig... I was once called a shot putter, till i peaked my soph year of college, and never got better.  That 16.20 was the best i had in 3 years, and still over a foot off my PR.

That day in columbus i threw 50'9 in the stone, and 101 in the hammer(took out a tent and almost hit Lannie on one that slipped out of my hands) in the 3 extra throws the AD gave the winners to break a field record.  First time I ever threw on grass, first time i ever threw a stone, hadn't trained in over 3 months, and i threw as far as i threw the shot, somebody explain that to me?

The 65' over head throw is a guess. I measured one at 18.56 fall 06. And we had some lines that were kinda visable, and it hit just short of the 20m line in the spring of 07. I hit a 69' with a 14 indoors. But, we did 10 OHT about 3 times a week, so I learned how to throw them, which might throw the numbers off. Maybe I'll test again this summer.  Alot of my power and explosion is in my hips. Which helps, cause I bench press like a big, goateed girl

Easy:  you usually over-train.
