Laurie MacDougall Sookraj makes history as only Canadian woman to lift Scotland’s 733-pound Dinnie Stones
43-year-old Canadian strongwoman Laurie MacDougall Sookraj made history at this month’s Aboyne Highland Games: she successfully lifted the legendary 733-pound Dinnie Stones, becoming the first Canadian woman and only the 22nd woman worldwide to conquer the iconic challenge. After failing her first attempt, she spent a year in gruelling strength and technique training, staying laser-focused on her goal. She only discovered her passion for strength sports in her 30s—proof it’s never too late to chase big dreams. What tough goal have you stuck with after a setback? Share your stories below!
