And of course, I was only defeated by the ludicrous chalk bag chord snagging incident
Oh yeh - any recommendations for a multipitch climb in the Lakes. Something HS 4b?
It's a long time ago, but I remember Tophet Wall being really good. Goes up a very improbable-looking bit of rock for the grade, as witness the fact that there's an E10 just next to it.
we carried on to Australia where we did a great couple of routes involving some unusual slate wierdness. Really enjoyable which pretty much confirms I have no soul.
Monday: Rubicon / Crag-X Bouldering – Working The Pinch, humid.Tuesday: REST – TWEAKED FINGER!!! (1-week off fingers required)
Worked on the mental aspect of pushing on instead of letting go when the going gets hard - a bad habit from working moves too much instead of doing links.
M - drunk and full of foodT - took climbing bro mountain biking 3 hours in rain and mud, broke him, makes a change as he usually breaks me climbing.W - nowtT - first pull up session, chair assisted, short run and plank / dishes and dead hangs.F - climbed 1.5 hours indoor wall. Fun.S - hard 3 hours climbing, still sticking on black project no. 8 as are buddies. S - 1.5 hours, warmed up and flashed black project no. 8 - 6b+ Lesson learned do hard stuff when über fresh! After last night, next weeks Monday will say - pants, too tired to do anyBLOODYthing, lay on crash mats and watched :DHaving had a indulgent bank holiday weekend this was a good weekend. Should get back into climb routine next week.
