I was exhausted just reading that Shark. It sounds like you were running around like a headless chicken. On trips away to new venues there are probably two broad strategies: focus, or drop your grade - it sounds like you didn't really do either, with the predictable result that you just got more and more battered. Sounds like there were some poor problem choices too.

Sounds like there were some poor problem choices too. You are so right. I wanted to go with the the flow on this trip and just enjoy the climbing and take things as they came but in hindsight that was a mistake as the reality was that it meant I was trying and failing to keep pace with two climbers who proved to be significantly fitter and stronger. Hopefully I will come away having banked some fitness/capacity/depth which the last few days has shown I'm lacking.
