was making decent progress this spring early summer. started running, on the treadmill, but still was running. and deep squats. was excited about returning to some easy climbing by fall.
well, over did it. tendinitis of hamstring tendons and fasciitis of the foot kicked back up.
so shooting for gym climbing by spring.

Hey, at least you're talking about it as a reality now. Well done.
I'll be in El Chorro again for a week between x-mas and new year,just before a residency that I have in Lisbon, Portugal for a month. (see fundraiser here with cool tax-deductible gifts!)
Meeting the german (KITT). First time climbing for me since Arco in April. Should be fun.

Finally managed to get back on, re -think of password. Climbing gym here, but road trip back to BC to ski Fernie over Christmas via U.S route, and then back again in Summer for a few weeks. All I find for outdoors locally are novices, and the odd know it all that knows not enough to be safe, so I'm sticking to the indoor gym locally for now.

My climbing lately has been exclusively limited to one-off, week-long or two-week trips to Europe (Arco or El Chorro) once or twice per year, plus the occasional hook up in Acadia when friends swing by.

Wait.... Are you back in the States? Like, permanently? I've lost track of things.
Obviously lost track of things. Yeah, I'm back in Bar Harbor helping my family out at the Inn. Not sure how long we'll be here, though.

I agree.
Also if he were still around on here this site would never be dead. He'd keep it alive as he was good at that.
