Then thought i'd see how my one arm hangs were feeling like, managed to hang hold 14 on the beastmaker for 3 seconds 1 armed. YYFY, stupid strength goal done.
Life is good.
STG: climb Everyday Lives of Ordinary People. Find 7c+ project......Totally shut down on The Wrist Business. Did Spy in the Sky instead which some seem to think is 7b+ but is actually pretty soft at 7b. Quite hot and felt quite ill for some reason. T - Back at the Remnant in Cheddar. Got on Everyday Lives of Ordinary People, a 7c which is a fairly powerful 6C+/7A off the ground to good rest followed by roughly 7b to the top. Lot of people dislike the boulder, but that might just be a route climbers perspective. I thought it was excellent! Best redpoint attempt was last go of day ending with scuffing hand on wall rather than holding a large undercut jug after which I think I'd have had a reasonable chance of hanging on to the end. No tick, but much more enjoyable climbing than previous day, big psych boost. Current short term goal now focused on getting it done!

M Tor - tried Green Alternative with an eye on Right to Roam. Two attempts, couldn't touch it.

Wrist business is desperate! 7B or so I've been told. The only 7c+ I did at cheddar was draggin along over on Ginsberg wall which I thought was pretty nice. Good luck on Everyday Lives. My first 7c back in the day...
S - Eridge Green, spent far too long falling off the last move of The Leaf 6B+. Azazel 7A turned out to be a lot harder than it looked, no tick Did a couple of highballs
