Holding onto his lead, Magnus (not Ver) Magnusson won Iceland's Strongest Man contest today.
Magnusson finished the competition with 66-1/2 points; Audunn Jonsson was second, with 49 points, and Gretar Gudmundsson was third, with 45 points. Magnusson, who might be going on to compete in this year's World's Strongest Man show, delivered a very impressive performance, which included knocking off the 110-, 125-, 140-, 155- and 170-kg round stones in the rain!
