Reflecting on 2013 and looking forward to the year ahead, I thought I'd get "back on the horse" with the blog.
The completion of my climbing-related goals for 2013 were a mix-bag. I had stated 2013 was for:
Wow. I didn't do any multipitch climbing, no trad climbing, a few (3) trips to the New River Gorge, WV, I flirted with training, didn't onsight much or send any projects ... I've come to the conclusion that I have no business making goals. lol ... well, I did finally manage to do a one-arm pull-up! Oh yeah I tore my medial meniscus in my left knee, get this, traversing ....warming up.
[sigh] dirty thirties are here.
Looking ahead to this year, I am stoked on:
- advancing my route setting
- getting outside more
- remaining injury free (i.e. meditating, praying, yoga, eating better, rest, warming up before I warm up, not doing insane drop knees, shoulder moves, monos or anything else that 16 year old climbers attempt!)
- doing smarter/focused training
- maximizing climbing time
- working my weaknesses
- getting back to my strong aerobic base (hello! running, biking, jump rope, swimming!)
As for today:
Minus falling and getting rope burn on my neck that looks in between a hickey and a hyena bite, today was great! Felt strong bouldering in gym today and set three (3) routes !
Blessings and Inspiration your way,
NM
P.S. More soon...
