Trips planned: Chulilla in Jan (onsight 7b+)

That's one aim in the bag; congrats in advance! I had a good fortnight at Chulilla in November.  Either the grades there are very soft, or a lot of the classic routes are just incredibly well-suited to on-sighting (at least if you can recover on decent holds).   

Not softer than many other crags in France & Spain I've been to the in last few years. You where probably going well, enjoy!

Been looking forward to this for a while now, last year of the degree and hopefully a big climbing year

• The big one, an 8B boulder
• At least 3 weeks in Magic Wood this summer
• Some MW 8as I've found hard in the past (foxy lady, astronautenfieber, right hand)
• Semis at the BBCs
• Keep up the weights training or at least something equivalent
• Don't get injured!!
• Good finish to degree
• Sort out something for afterwards

I had a pretty productive year this year, which hopefully sets me up for next year. A few unfinished bit from this year and slightly more focus on specifics than last year.

1. Start running again. Min 5km run once a week.
2. Get on some of the big E5s in Pembroke, the Pass, Gogarth. E.g. Right Wall, Headhunter, Positron.
3. Complete MA in Gritology: Master's Edge, Masters of the Universe, Master of Reality.
4. The big (and possibly unrealistic) one: Point Blank.
5. Make good use of summer holiday for trip out of Europe.

Didnt set any last year, but had a good one, more to do with mountaineering than technical rock. This year time off and money are in short supply, SO..

1. Get out on rock MORE (than the last 3 months)
2. Onsight multiple 7a+ in spain
3. Boulder hard again (V7 at least, preferably a 7C)
3. Start training properly, and keep falling off (sub one of get that fingerboard put back up)
4. Smash MSc and get good at it
5. Dont go mental
6. Do some limestone bouldering...
7. Get an (interesting) job lined up for september
8. Onsight E4 and lots more E2s and some more E3s

DONT GET INJURED

3. Complete MA in Gritology: Master's Edge, Masters of the Universe, Master of Reality.

Nice theme. OS / Flash one presumes...

[Footwork]

1. Burn off Will Hunt consistently
2. Blog more frequently
3. Put together a climbing film or at least a few short clips
4. Go trad climbing more (I forget it's what gives me the most pleasure)
5. Get a training contract

1. Burn off Will Hunt consistently

Ben is succeeding on his project.

A wild Will Hunt appeared.

It used Leech Life on Footwork.

It's super effective!

wondering what it could buy

frightening thoughts

Hitching back from Cham in the 80s I was offered 5 francs for my "services". Five bloody francs! I ask you!

[mr chaz]

This year I want to keep the sport climbing ball rolling, after making good ground last year.

Sport - project 7c+/8a and climb more at 7c.

Boulder - nothing specific, see what happens... and something harder than 7a in Fontainebleau!

Training - 1, 4, 7.

Trips - Fontainebleau and Ceuse.

General - start playing music again, take better photos, graduate and get a job (not essential), start drinking coffee, sell my motorbike, buy a car, become a real man, understand women?!?!?, catch a fish and eat it, win a fight, 2 pointless answers in one show, zero drop knees.
Gonna be a big year

And what happened next? (Assuming you retorted with an expletive or five

[andy popp]

I know

Needless to say, the offer was not from some gorgeous French woman in a sports car but from the inevitable middle-aged man. He didn't make clear what he wanted for 5 francs. And it has to be said, I was totally skint: no money, no food. To be fair he didn't argue at all when I said 'non' - in fact, I think he took me a long way out of his way.

But, still, five francs! I was veritable young Adonis, bronzed from a season in Alps!

[tomtom]

Religious nuts were always the worst lift givers when hitching.. They had a captive audience...

[remus]

In no particular order:

• Godzilla, Biblins Cave
• Brean Topping
• ShadowWalker, cheddar
• Get board strong
• Try and not get injured from sitting at a desk all day
• Save enough money to live on the road for a year (living meaning something marginally above abject poverty)
• Mark of the Beast and other cool dws stuff
• Get overly board strong, inc. various party tricks

That was meant to be funny too!

Stop taking me so seriously!


Anyway,

Aims for 2015.

Start climbing again.

Lose weight.

I'll be happy, if I can get back to 7A in a session and 7C projects.

Try not to be injured anymore or so old.
