stoney

I think I mentioned previously that I was going to add a bouldering session into my training programme. Well, yesterday me and a friend were lamenting our lack of outdoor climbing, pulling on real rock. So, as the weather was gash, we opted for Stoney Middleton, the classic 80s training area.

A five pound bus journey and there we were. Minus Ten was soaked on the left hand side, but the right half offered excellent conditions and enough to go at. I repeated a font7b I had done before, Zippy's Sidepull, in a few goes. Its very easy once you have the movement down. I managed to flash a font7a+ dyno called megatron, which was suprising as I'm crap at dynos. I also got up an unnamed 7a+, battling through dripping wet holds.

It was a really good session, I was just glad to get outdoors. I was really psyched for Stoney too as I've just finished Jerry Moffat's Revelations. The only downside to the session was I felt really bad today, so I haven't fingerboarded today. Still Power Endurance tomorrow! Psyched.
