STG: Onsight Fair Head E3, lead the second pitch of Salango
MTG: Onsight E4. Projects in Dublin and Wicklow. Bouldering project at murlough.
LTG: climb E7

Mon to Fri: No training. A blur of work to finish off the taught part of my masters course.
Sat: Did a fingerboard session just so i didn't feel like a useless lazy lump
Sun: Sleep
Mon: Onsighted the first pitch of classic Head E3 Salango. First pitch is like a really pleasant E1 or something. Second pitch is dirty hard, but only fell off once while seconding. Gone way up the list of things to do.

STG: climb El Cap. (was also climb E3 but that has fallen by the wayside)
LTD: E5

Shoulder continues to be a problem hence no training as such this week except some very gentle stability stuff and two or three decent walks / jogs.  15km feels trivial so I should at least be OK for the walk-in / walk-off.

May not post the next couple of weeks as I will be in Yosemite.

Mon - pull ups x 50 on big slots and 20 degree sloper
Tues - Beastmaker, mainly assisted one-armers and pull-ups
Wed - Beastmaker - lots of repeaters
Thursday - Awesome, volume bouldering and about 1 hr circuits on the 45
Fri/Sat - rest/family
Sun - Kilnsey. Warm up on Comedy. 3 good goes on GA, missed the jug by being overstrong and reaching too far! Did it in 2 easily. Gutted as I wasn't even pumped. Cooled down by doing Comedy again. Good progress.

F.restart du long rocher went here to avoid the crowds which we did.but we seemed to walk miles trying to find things.tried a couple hard things but no chance.
S.rocher canon boiling hot and i felt knackered so just easy stuff.
Sun. came home.

pretty good 2 weeks climbing.not bad conditions to say its may i.e freezing only problem was i'd taken sun tan lotion instead of thermals.also drank abit which meant an extra workout taking the emptys to the bottle bank.

Yeah - but the regime, discipline and focus were all there...
