It being Easter, I visited the family in Pittsburgh - though I day tripped the Red River Gorge Friday - man - its funny - working hard routes really beats the heck out of one....I've been working "Harvest" and its just beating the crap out of me.
Saturday - I met a crew of peeps at McConnells Mill, which was my home crag growing up. As a kid - I remember trying this route "Mini Ovest" aka Peter Pan (5.11d) a severally overhanging top-rope route (all the routes at the Mills are top-rope routes) - its more like 12a or 12b - but who's counting right?
I was feeling pretty beat from the Red the previous day and was getting shut down on the boulder problems (though I did several V4s that I have life-time wired).
Yesterday, Bill and I went to some crag at the New to work a project we drilled last week - its pretty hard - I couldn't do the second crux move, though Bill is really close on it - I think that he's going to send it tomorrow (we're going again after work.)
Its pretty hot though this time of year! and the bugs are a major bummer - but that's life.
I haven't been training lately, and I think that I've been eating too much - though not a major deal - I haven't been training - all this climbing is getting in the way!!!
