1. Parkrun with brother-in-law this morn, good start to the year. Cleared out the remaining Christmas leftovers from the fridge, though still going on the homemade mince pies, too good not to.

Aim to start a week's trial at the independent crossfit-style gym my wife goes to, in the next day or so, with the aim of working on the gaps left by climbing and running and just feeling stronger/healthier overall.

2. 30 min rainy walk to nursery and back in the morning.
5k run loop to/from the gym (first time in about 20 years) this eve, had a good 1h strength training session. Keen to get stuck in over the next few weeks and see some progress. Mostly used light weights and focused on technique.
Was quite restrained with food, though still working through sister-in-law's homemade Christmas cake.

3. Very wet 1h walk school/nursery run. 1h30 indoor boulder session.

4. 1h walk school/nursery run. 5k run loop to/from gym, 1h strength session. Really enjoyed.

5. Just the 1h school/nursery walk today. And currently doing a bit of stretching.

6. 15 min jog to gym then a 1h beasting. Loved it. Went for a coffee after and managed to avoid the pastries.

7. 1.5h trail run (10ish miles) along the coast from Clevedon to Portishead whilst daughter at ballet. One of those where it fitted in perfectly and felt like a win.

8. The normal 1h walk school/nursery run this morning, then 5k run to/from 1h strength training at gym.

9. Just the 1h walk this morning, though we were late so I was storming along with a double buggy incl. 40kg of children, which got the HR up.

10. Same again today, just the school run. Wife's birthday so no chance of an evening outing!

11. 2 x school run (2h brisk walking) then 1.5h bouldering at Bloc this eve. Had a whale of a time.

12. Just the school run 1h walk

13. Very gentle jog to parkrun then back, about 6 miles. Keeping my powder dry for a race tomorrow. Went out for dinner for wife's birthday, it was really nice and also managed to maintain dry January

14. 10 mile off road race this morning, it went well and enjoyed climbing deep into the pain cave

15. 1h brisk walk and 1.5h bouldering at TCA

16. 1h brisk walk

17. 1h brisk walk. Have signed up to gym from next week, following a week's trial, so will get back on it then.

18. 1h walk and 1h indoor bouldering

19. 1h walk only

20. 6 mile run incl. parkrun. The quickest I've done Ashton Court (big hill) in a good few years, which was a pleasant surprise.

[Fiend]

20 - Gym, stretching.

[slab_happy]

20. Tired tired tired. Half an hour of very slow yoga.

ETA: this is why trying to stick to training plans don't work for me. Why did I wake up extremely tired today? Who the fuck knows. Will I be this tired tomorrow? Who the fuck knows.

[dunnyg]

19. About an hour of walking.

20. 6b+ X 2 and pretty much 3 laps of a 7a (tr and 2 RP, got it in the end)

Day 20

50 mins Reform Pilates… first time!! Interesting, complements climbing well I think, strong core required.

No booze, 1 bar chocolate

20. 30 minutes stretching and rehab thought about leaving due to still feeling shit. Went for a walk to see if that would clear the snot, it didn’t. 1 hour 40 minutes.

[slab_happy]

50 mins Reform Pilates… first time!! Interesting, complements climbing well I think, strong core required.

My mum's been doing reformer Pilates all her life and her core strength is insane -- she's 70-something and has Parkinson's and I'm pretty sure she could still outdo me on core strength. So yeah, would be an amazing complement to climbing, I think.

5 - 50 mins fell run, 8k

12 - 45 mins fell run, 8k plus 1 hr of walking for the school run
13 - 2 hrs 30 fell run, 24k (possible new fell race route from Hathersage called The Hibernator, good route but some bad line choices)
14 - 40 mins conditioning (pull-ups, hangs, TRX)

Still no booze.

15 - 50 mins fell run, 9k
16 - 2 hrs at Depot, new red circuit and a few board problems on the 30

18 - 45 mins fell run, 8k

Still off the booze unless you count whatever’s in tiramisu.

21. Lead to 6as (one was more like 6b) and dogged an amazing looking bit shit climbing 7a on top rope. Retreated for a rest day. Ate a burger (worth it).

Curious to see what weight I'm at given high activity levels and low self restraint.

[monkoffunk]

18. 30min+ weight session. Yoga.
19. Pre night shift. 10 mins yoga morning. Tom Randall’s 6min core x2. Yoga for the rest.
20. Pre night shift. 1 hour 15 bouldering before work. Few plastic problems and then making up easy stuff on the board. Adding a little try hard back. Yoga.

21. Pre night shift. 15 mins yoga when home. Evening, 7 mins core, Randall’s thing but less rest and swapped out sit ups. Return to some form of structure finger board for the remainder. 7 on 13 off for a couple rounds on crimp.

[nik at work]

21 - board session with the kids. Wasn’t feeling inadequate enough so invited Dougie Hall round to join us (Chris says hi from the 80’s…?). Triple oooooof!

Was supposed to fly back to Manchester tonight but winds have cancelled my flight, now flying back Tuesday morning… which means another board session likely tomorrow evening, I think my fingers might start to cry.
Did a decent stretching session today, not getting any more bendy but hate to admit that it does seem to be (unsurprisingly) beneficial for old man achey stiffness. Might have to persist…

[Fiend]

21 - 2 hours bouldering at the boardroom interspersed with blood pressure raising training as they've still kept of the gobbledegook nonsense root vegetable grading bullshit.

[slab_happy]

21. Half hour "run", hour doing shoulder exercises and left-handed "fingerboarding" with the little Ash offcut board.
