A big thank you goes out to everyone who competed, helped out, and showed up to cheer on the athletes at this year’s Testify Strongman Summer Showdown! We have a lot of great photos thanks to @growe13, and more of those will go up over the next few days, but for now, here are a few photos of some of the competitors, the winners of Morgard the Manatee, and Mike’s gunz...because...well, just look at those things.
