This week on The Good, The Bad & The Beast, Eddie is joined by one of the most athletic strongmen on the scene: Paddy Haynes. 

From humble beginnings working on the family farm, to excelling in athletics at school, Paddy’s journey to strongman is a unique one. A serious marathon runner-turned-strongman is not the usual story, but it shows the determination and focus of an athlete committed to a goal.
