Hi my name is Steve. I found out about Highland Games from Dan John's GetUp newsletter. I attended my first HG last month up in Minnesota. I had a blast and am considering competing in a games, possibly Quad Cities in August. Are there any throwers around Northwest Iowa? I have family in the Des Moines and Twin Cities areas so i find myself there frequently. I am a 29yr old former D-III college basketball player. And judging by the size of the competitors at the MN games quite light in the weight department |
I don't have any experience throwing weights around. I would appreciate any advice...thanks!
