Nicholas Krug

Who inspires you and why? Jesse Marunde is one of the most influential people on my life. He was a world strongman who passed away in 2007. He was a very good friend of my dad’s, and I have early memories of him placing very highly at strongman competitions all over the place. He also showed me very early that with a good work ethic you can achieve your goals, and he did just that. He was very inspiring in his example of how to be a great man and a great athlete as well. Without his great early guidance, I would not be the wrestler or young man I am today.
