finger injury's christmas and work!

well that just about sum's up my last two months, after hearing my finger go crack at the start of December it has been a frustrating few months of not really training, coupled with a good bout of man flu after Christmas which just would not go away! The finger seems to be coming good again now so i can get back to pre-season training.
January seems to have been dominated by some much needed work, with two lines on the main wall at Manchester followed by a couple of weeks at the new wall in Harrogate due to open next week, and then the February bouldering competition at Manchester, meaning a whole new batch of problems down at MCC from tomorrow night when I've finished filling in the gaps.

I've even managed to sneak a few days out on the rock and don't seem to have lost too much of the strength I'd gained before Christmas, just a little finger strength. Got a nice day out on Wednesday last week at Trowbarrow, flashed Iron man stand up, 7c, and the did the sitter 3rd go after a frustrating slip at the start, originally given 8a, but probably 7c+, see vid below.




Off to Font for a week on Tuesday, so hopefully might finally do Kehops.......but probably not as there has been shed loads of snow out there! watch this space
