Martens' 20 pounds, 7 ounces, kept him in front of Scott Rook of Little Rock, Ark., with 19-6. Rook snuck ahead of defending Classic champ Kevin VanDam, who had 19-3 for third place.

The fog was really bad here in town. I caught up on sleep after staying up light working on editing. Still got up long before they took off. The fog out my window after 10 AM Central time (11 AM Eastern) still obscured the tops of nearby buildings almost completely.
