good news

My finger is almost ok. I did something to it a couple of weeks back when was jerking off on rock-rings. Basically i had a shooting pain in my forearm every time a ring finger on my right hand would hook something.  And I still have some weird (hard to describe) unpleasant sensation in that part of my hand/palm/fingers. But I can climb and it was ok up to a point where i tried to climb overhanging 5.11a with stupid holds.

Other good news I fell from 5.11c just once and only because it had a loose hold (lame excuse but true). So I feel good about my progress. Also trying to loose some excessive weight (and of course i mean fat). That has been on my mind for a while. I must say that watching your calories works very well.

Other than that I just climbed from 4 to 6 on the campus board, with a single-step increments. Could not do that before, when my finger was not injured.

5.11d

numerous falls

not bad

mock leading 5.11b and repeatedly falling on 5.12a

bouldering

elbow pain is not good. But it's mostly gone now. I guess my tendons' strain tolerance level got higher, will see tomorrow.

progress report

While I am feeling comfortable with several 5.11b routes I still suck on V4. But my confidence is growing and nowhere it was a month ago.

fail

I tried 5.11b/c and I failed numerously. That's discouraging. But I should've start with no overhang route, of course.
Campusing on the other hand is progressing a bit. At least i can do more than just hang on :) Even if that costs me some skin.
