Day 1 - incredibly fucked from a new years party that ended at 8am but did do 30 mins of yoga in the evening

Day 2 - couple hours trying hard on Definitive 5.12 in Burbage North. Resisted us but all moves two overlapping links etc etc etc. Evening had an hour on the board and benched warmup 5x5, then overhead squats 3x5

Day 3:

20 minutes proper strength rehap on my shoulder with a bit of core thrown in for good measure.

30 minutes on fingerboard. Can't hang on my shoulder without taking some weight but did a load of pull up and finger jug hang sets.

Will stretch later and whilst I know stretching is contentious in sharkathon when it's on a knackered shoulder and hurts like hell I'm taking it!

Day 3

Easy auto belay routes in between belaying the middle child.
Cough has improved, but can't get my temperature right.

In - need to make the rehab stick and get back to something resembling training.

31st - good wall session, ticked some projects

1st - leg rehab and stretching
2nd - glorious winter sunshine on Portland. A handful of routes to 6b+ and a general family faff day.
3rd - inset day for the lad so I took the day off and we went to the wall - another good session, off the last move of a project.

1st. Woke to the glorious inevitable tragedy that will be 2023, a positive thought about getting out and exercising hit me out of the blue and nearly floored me, worry not i extinguished this by an early shot of "Vodbeena" and sinking into the death spiral of trolling far right conservative forums guised as an obsessed angry CrossFit feminist called Nigel{pronounced Njel}.
2nd. Woke{again}, had a nightmare about being young and full of hope so spent the day laying in my own filth and "Pullin the Fuckin Heed aff it".
3rd. Woken by the Polis, Neighbours are complaining about the smell{again}
4th.  Woke{again}, had a nightmare about being old and cynical so spent the day laying in my own filth and "Pullin the Fuckin Heed aff it".

It sounds like 30 mins doesn't even begin to cover this marathon beat off session

Haven't yet decided if I'm fully in or not....  Shocking state of indecision, but 1-9 Jan should be easy enough.

1. Easy bolt clipping at Sella, avoiding using my LH index finger... AKA becoming back 3 Enduro beast.
2. Easy bolt clipping at Lliber, avoiding using my LH index finger... AKA becoming back 3 Enduro beast.
3. Easy bolt clipping at Garx, avoiding using my LH index finger... AKA becoming back 3 Enduro beast.
4. Easy bolt clipping at Cabeconet, avoiding using my LH index finger... AKA becoming back 3 Enduro beast. Bolt to bolted  nice 7b+ and lead a 6c. Tried a savage and ugly 7a+ that had a crux as hard as many 7c's to get the draws back for mates. Finger steadily knitting back together.

Day 4

Cough is much improved. Sinus pain is off the scale. Couldn't face cycling to work, so drove in for a change.

Took it steady at work. Did 4 hours steady walking, lots of talking, probably only 8 miles. That will have to do for today's exercise.
