A mixed week from everyone - some really nice stuff tho.
Monday was an odd day. Got the YYFY call from the Doc but also had the results back from the MRI on the left knee. Seems I tore the medial ligament again at the end of January before I had the couple of sessions with John Kettle, so all that icing and contrast stuff must have helped, as I pretty much just carried on climbing, all be it easier stuff.
Mon - Boulder. Tips sore after Curbar but got on a couple of V5s, the V4 on the 45 - great session till arms went empty and headed home.
Tue - Was gonna do arc session but just belayed my mate - tips knackered.
Wed - Gig. Much beer.
Thu - Hungover.
Fri - Rough.
Sat - Pulled muscle in back, so stretched etc.
Sun - Sore. Climbing Unit in Derby for the first time. Nice place, Font grades. Did a load of easy stuff whilst doing my drills. Then tried lots of harder stuff but moved on after maybe two or three goes. Bagged a few pinks, flashed a harder one
Managed the crux moves on some oranges. Even tried some of the superior being problems.
Dense said the other day on one thread or another that anyone can hang one armed on a jug - so I spent the week trying to hang from the scaffold at work. Not a chance, just slipped off instantly. Just can't grip well enough on a piece of cold steel that size. Friday put my best efforts in but woke up on Saturday, tangled in the bedsheets with my right arm twisted under me. Think all the trying to hang one armed didn't help and something's amiss. Scaffold 1 - 0 Kelvin
Only two sessions this week, poorest effort in a long while but happy with both. Skin would have been too thin to climb in between anyway. Feeling strong for me at the moment.
