Stamina

The leading competition really brought home the fact it was time to start my stamina training for the World Cup series. Five minutes on, five minutes off for an hour or so. Pump-tastic.

Some of the boulder league blocs that I had completed previously felt almost impossible towards the end of the session.

The bouldering leagues are now complete. I took 1st place in Level 2 of the Foundry League and Womens 3rd place in the Works League behind Leah Crane and Rae Cowie.

Ford Skymasters

I entered the Ford Skymasters competition at the Ordnance Survey Ourdoors Show this weekend. An innovative set up of suspended blocks forming a long roof leading to a suspended Ford Ranger. It was fun to climb if somewhat unnerving that some of the blocks were able to rock.

It was my first leading competition and I was pleased to make healthy 10th place. One hold behind the 3 girls ahead of me.
