If it's not improving quickly don't be afraid to get it checked again (ask bubbles his story if you're not aware of it already, his kind of experience is quite common).

Welcome to PC, nice one getting started. Crikey that is a big week though!! Not a single bit of rest and strength work every day?! Bear in mind I'm in a total fugue state atm where picking up a weight seems like hard work but still...
Cheers guys, I don't know Bubbles' story. I assume its not good? Could walk a bit with crutches the morning so hopefully that's a good sign.

Sitting on the ground with the initial pain all the way through my leg was worrying about how bad it was but thankfully after a few minutes of trying not to be sick the pain concentrated to just my ankle and a bit in my quad. With the aid of plenty of painkillers i was able to hop com hobble around and on the plus side I did manage to get a nice photo of G on Crescent Arete of the sun was setting.
If anyone has any advice or good exercises to do while injured they'd by much appreciated.
M.Tor. T Tor with Nick chilly... My training plan which I had proudly constructed was heavily criticised by an experienced coach which was demoralising. One of the recommendations was not climbing outside so much which I would find demotivating. Couple more Tor sessions lined up with Nick tomorrow and thursday.

That would be very grim, indeed.
Of course, I might get blackballed.

I have started to feel a yearning for trad in my loins and started fantasising about hanging out Ynys Ettws in the summer as a base to go scrambling, trad climbing and bouldering.
<Shudder> Four wheels good, Two wheels bad

That sounds good to me too but come on, one last big push at least. Sacrifice 3 months, get a training plan that means you can boulder outside once a week and train the remainder so you can say you gave yourself every chance of doing it.

Hopefully keep the motivation up and get out on voyager as much as possible over then grit season. Nothing like a hard project to keep the motivation up.
