After going back to uni and having all the stress involved with that before I even get my grades back
I have got a job in my field of study which I start on the 12 June.  :great:

I can't wait

After two years of no free time and what free time I had I was forcing my self to 30min climbs here and there. I have free time again and no idea what to do with it which is great too.

Plus am off to Wembley on Monday

Very happy

Coincidently someone posted on fb that she was looking for someone to share their flat in the foundry if that's of interest? I'll pm her email

Occasionally, but they have to be back home before dark.

Hi Denbob. I've PM'd you, and I think you've replied, but I can't access your message. There's a database error. I'm sure we could sort something out, if you get stuck. I'll send you my phone number when things are working. Good that you resurrected the YYFY thread. It was beggingning to look as though everyone was having a seriously crap time ;-)

After my 10k joy a few months back I've been pretty injured with a bad knee. But after excellent support from my physio and a rigorous regime of excercise and rehabilitation I managed a fully pain free sub 29 minute 5k this morning  :boxing:

Good man. I had some knee pain after the Etape Caledonia, but had a sports masseur who went hard on my ITBs which seems to have helped, plus the long skinny muscle down the outside of your calf (name eludes me).

Stretching and foam rolling!

  Good man, someone else into running strides too. They're the business. Loads here that we should discuss in the "Don't go running" thread. ?

Mega psyched after yesterday's session, I'd been having this idea in my mind for a while and finally managed to put it to test.
Ten sets of a sub-max snatch (3 reps) followed by a one arm hang on the BM central rung, 90 degrees lock.
Absolutely brilliant, mega fun and mentally challenging.
Today I feel properly worked.

Just sent off my booking for a gite in Bois le Roi for next Easter.

Will be my first time in the forest for almost exactly thirty years. Trip motivated by the lad, who having been only interested in indoor bouldering for the last couple of years, suddenly started asking "Dad, when can we go to Font?". Plastic blob leaping not entirely the work of the devil after all.

He's already started asking if we can get a bigger mat.

After over fifteen years of banging my head against the precipitous outer wall of the world of publishing, I finally have a book coming out this September...

Amazing, not the usual YYFY but serious congratulations. Publishing journal articles is enough of a pain in the ass for me, I can't imagine how much of a nightmare books are!

It's a very serious book. Slap it on top of, er, Stephen Hawking’s book on your coffee table and impress your friends.
