Painful on tops of forearms yesterday (possibly from shoddy technique on campus board on Monday) but had a hearty cup of MTFU and went to wall last night anyway. Had a reasonably good session (2 1/2 hours or so) and arms actually feel better today than yesterday.

My Mrs got a permanent teaching job in Newtown Aycliffe today! So I'm on the move again, time to build a nest (and a board hopefully!) in County Durham!

Cheers Kelvin, John and Andy_e. Will certainly be keen to get out once relocated properly, which is hopefully going to be in the new year.

Climbed another project on the board! Six session, going from barely doing the moves in isolation, to... barely doing the whole problem!
Now, on with the next one!

I was tempted but then I decided that this Autumn and Winter will be dedicated only to existing projects, with no new problems added!
Unfortunately, having a little memory and a big ego I thought I had fewer things to do, but checking the logbook I keep finding problems that I haven't done, and each time I think "Fuck me, why did I set this?"
A couple of them will be really challenging.

So I've got the Fear Factory's scariest 10 problems as a goal. And so far I've ticked off 6 of them with only the hardest AND scariest left.
Just ticked off the one with the worst landing and the highest............
2000 Light Years From Home V5
So fucking amped when I topped out...
Housemate put it up 15 years ago and this is only the 2nd proper ascent (dude did cheat finish and did easy left exit...)
Ended up doing 10 laps on it so we could film it.....
7/10...

Are you sure that's still bouldering?
Well done!

I have been puntering around for years with numerous 7a sport projects left half done up and down the country with no real understanding on how to get better.
This year I had some coaching with Robin O'leary and spent time mining the depths of UKB training knowledge and finally sorted myself out. I sent Rubicon first go on Sunday, 3rd of the grade sent this year and now feel keen and ready to try something harder. Luckily I've got a two week sport climbing trip next month to Turkey!
Thank you for answering all the silly questions, standby for more to come.

After 5 years of chronic lower back issues, I've finally managed to be put forward for an MRI. This is a major YYFY and hopefully might lead to a route to a fix of sorts.
