The SPOOKtacularly popular StrongKids Halloween returns Saturday, October 20th!! The competition will be held from 12-3:00pm.
Last year’s edition saw 55 kids from over a half dozen states come together and enjoy the true spirit of… well, being a kid!
Bring the kids for a great time competing showing and testing their true strength… and since it’s Halloween, in costume! Kids being strong, being active, and most importantly- having a great time. Viking and Halloween-themed trophies and medals for 1st through 3rd, as well as traditional and healthier Halloween treats and contest shirts for everyone who signs up at least a week before the competition!
Due to the success of the previous shows and by popular request, we are introducing new age divisions!! Age groups are as follows… 2-3, 4-5 years 6-7 years 8-9 years 10-11 years 12-13 years. Events and challenges will be increasingly scaled to make them truly age appropriate for the StrongKids!!!
We will be competing in 4 kid-friendly strongman events, with a bit of a Halloween flair!
THE EVENTS FOR 2018!!
1. MB Toss and Race – StrongKids will have a marked distance which they must cover with medicine ball tosses, ending at a Prowler sled (or similar), which they’ll then have to race back as fast as they can!
2. Deadlift Medley – regardless of age, kids will begin needing to Single Arm Kettlebell Deadlift a variety of weights… then to finish the medley, younger StrongKids will deadlift our VPT StrongKids Car Deadlift for max reps, while older kids will use the Beast Metals Viking 650 handle deadlift for max reps!
3. Press Medley – younger StrongKids will go through an assortment of single arm Dumbbell and Kettlebell presses before finishing with medicine balls and barbell presses for reps! (We have barbells as light as 5lb, so even the youngest StrongKids will be lifting some iron ?). Older kids will have single arm Dumbbell presses, a keg press, sandbag press, and barbell presses for max reps to finish!! We may even sneak a log press in there, mwahaha!
4. Carry, Drag, and Flip, oh my! Another race! Farmers carry (younger kids Kettlebells, older kids will use farmers handles), to a backwards sled drag, and finishing with tire flips!!
Entry fee: $32 Early bird pricing (effective through Friday, August 31), then registration fee will change to $37!
The address is 141 Greenbag Rd., Morgantown WV (the main Viking Performance building).
Also be prepared for a few door prizes and costume prizes! The competition begins at 12:00pm, but please have your kids at the gym by 11:30 so that we are able to go over the rules and events.
