Thor looks to be in great shape and could easily win his 2nd WSM.
Judging on those final events I have:


Event 1: Loading Race
Kieliszkowski, Thor, Martins, Shaw

Event 2: Deadlift Hold
Shaw, Martins .... then probably mid pack Thor and Kiels, not sure about their grip endurance

Event 3: Overhead Press Medley
Kiels, Thor, Martins, Shaw

Event 4: Squat Lift (Reps)
Thor, Martins (could go either way), Shaw............Kiels (not a good event for him)

Event 5: Atlas Stones
Thor, Shaw, Kiels, Martins


Overall Thor would win due to more consistent top 2-3 places, with Martins in 2nd and Kiels fighting with Brian Shaw for the 3rd place.


That's how I see it this year, definitely looking forward to the finals.

Wish things lined up for me better work-wise, or I would love to be there to watch, not often is it in America.

Nothing can stop Thor. Not even an injury.

That was the fastest pull from all the groups. Then on the 2nd event, the farmers walk + yoke medley he confirmed on instagram that he tore his plantar fascia, so he will be in some pain, and at this point he will continue by testing his mental toughness on each event left.

Wish him the best.

Those guys thrive in pain. He will probably still win.
