Longford’s Jade Harkin a fantastic third in Europe’s Strongest Woman
World’s Strongest Woman event in Scotland in August
Longford’s Jade Harkin finished a fantastic third at the Natural Strongman’s Europe's Strongest Woman at the weekend.
The competition was held in the Doncaster Dome where she had to complete events such as a 75kg overhead press on two different implements, a 240kg yoke run, 90kg sandbag for as many reps as possible over a bar, along with a few other events.
In particular the circus dumbbell ladder, where she won the event and was only one of two women to complete the 45kg dumbbell press.
She is delighted to have been on the podium alongside two other women who both have World titles to their credit.
She has now qualified for the World's Strongest Woman event from the 21st-23rd of August in Scotland.
Married to Jack Harkin, Jade also has another competition in a few weeks time in the Claregalway Castle as part of the Dagda Games which is a family friendly event and tickets for this can be purchased on eventbrite.
