Happy new year everyone
well what can i say the last year has been the best year
ever which makes 2012 one in which im going to really need to try hard to have
as good a time, hope all you guys had just as good a year and that your new
years resoloutins will be followed through.
Here we went for the final clinb of the season and again
attempts on my project trying to end the perfect year with a send of the
perfect route, but allas it wasnt to be i am broken and battered far to tired
to send it i did reach my previous high point twice but with nothing left for
the final powerful move to easyer ground, it is strange i have never had to try
so hard and give everything for such a long time on a route, i normaly cant do
it or dont send because of hesitation, being intimidated by moves not having a
good sequence or lack of effort, this one i am giving everything i have and
after 2 goes in a day i am waisted and im only doing 13ish moves!!! i can feel
today that i am starting to feel a bit ill so will be taking a few rest days
then when fresh i will be jumping back on it and crushing, theres a few photos
below cheers to Lucy for the camera skills,
New years night was a chilled afair with all being totaly
knackered from the days climbing, fearing we wouldnt make it to midnight we
chatted drank champagne and then revitalised with coffee :). midnight came to
the sounds of spandu ballet. then David muttered the thoughtfull words of lets
have a night climb to see the new year in, so fuelled with a few beers we headed
to the closest crag to climb our first climb of the year at 12.15 am!! head
torches donned were off climbing in our own little bubble or light, after
warming up on a 6a+ i decided to try something a little harder and managed to
squeeze out a night onsight of a 6c+ with a few mutters of david watch me here
i cant see my feet, and him saying i cant see you how far abovethe bolt are
you:). thankfully on this climb i didnt have a beer can in my chalk bag as
chalk was most deffinatly needed.
see you all soon
