The organizers of the Venice Beach Grand Prix, a World's Strongest Man qualifier, have just released the contest's events.

Set for June 18 at California's world famous Venice Beach, the action begins at noon with the Giant Log Lift, which will give each competitor three attempts on a 12-inch log. Maximum weight wins.

Tired of wimpy farmer's walks? Then grab these puppies and run: 175 kg (385 pounds) in each hand, with the longest distance winning.

Stones of Strength follow, with five stones ranging from 306 to 385 pounds, plus the 410-pound "Challenge/Tombstone," and the fastest time wins.

Next up is the Giant Fishing Pole, for maximum weight.

Pedal to the medal: Run with the 400-kg yoke next, for the fastest time over a 20-meter course.

For those who are still standing, a power medley caps off the day: flip a 1200-pound tire four times, carry a 500-pound weight stack up three steps, and then load a 400-pound keg. Fastest time wins.
