    Results from the PTC Gold Coast Novice comp Jan 19

    Here are the results from PTC Gold Coast's first novice comp yesterday. Was a great day of lifting, made possible only by all the help I had in the form of volunteers. Plenty of PBs broken. Lots and lots of sweat. All in all a really great day.
