Inspiring reading this week, lots of ticks and training progress.

Was in Font last week, brilliant as always but was a week of relaxing rather more than trying pushing myself. Did get sucked into my multi-visit multi-session fight with Crazy Horse as it was the only thing dry one day and eventually the technique gods answered my prayers and I got up the thing  I've now got a brilliant sequence for the short(ish), admittedly one that others probably would have sussed in a few minutes rather than days.
Also had my requisite stopper 5+ and 6a on the circuits to remind me how poor my technique can be 

Goals for this week are to have the builders out of the house, actually get some work done, and maybe even squeeze in a training session 

In a bit of a motivational black hole at the moment.

Hang in there Chillax, it'll come good.

STG – (recovery from knee cap dislocation) Finger board sessions 3 times a week, back top roping/leading during November, December – climb 7a+ circuit at Gollum’s Cave, Bristol.
MTG – Climb 7b, (House Burning Down/Bitter and Twisted) on-sight 7a
LTG – Climb 7c, climb 8a within 3 years (from 6th September 2010)

Quick, late post as pressed for time..

M-Finger board
Wed- Finger board
Sat- Finger board

Won't go into any more detail, good to hit 3 sessions in the week, next week (this week...) not so good as on weeks placement. Sessions themselves were pretty good, certainly will keep me ticking over til I can climb again (?this weekend). Anyhow, not really sure if doing enough to hit December target, but knee recovery is going well, so if I feel like I can up the intensity some time soon I will. In the absence of bouldering, and because I'm training for a bouldery route, I will have to focus on climbing hard routes, even if on toprope, and working the hard sections even if I can redpoint the whole thing. Do some bouldering on a rop basically....
