Today I had the privilege of attending the World Championship for Highland Games. The competitors were all impressive, large strong men. They were also great sportsmen and there was camaraderie among them. The top 3 spots were taken by the US of A. It was exciting to see this level of athleticism up close and personal. Here are some pics from the event and me with some of the competitors. All very cordial despite a lengthy day of competition. And most seemed to have a good sense of humor.
Both the men in the photos with me were monstrous. The first is US competitor Mike Zolkiewicz and the other giant is Ukrainian Kyrylo Chuprynin. He suggested the "thumbs up"
