A New Dawn 11:42

Yet again my attempts to get back into training and climbing over the last couple of months have failed miserably. Since I wrote this post, I've been too busy to contemplate training. Work has continued at an incredible pace which has kept the bags under my eyes and the bank balance in good shape. However since Europe's largest street festival hit my doorstep in late August it's been non stop weddings/stag do/parties and I've spent a fair amount of the time with an alcoholic drink in my hand and no time to hit the wall.

After returning from a holiday to Croatia with my other half a week or so ago, I felt rested and ready to hit work, but more improtantly my training, with new zeal. After a year or so feeling at the mercy of my work, I now feel that I have things well in control.

It's time to start getting back in to shape. I've missed the feeling of floating through problems, pulling down on plastic and rock, but most importantly hanging with all the great people I know in the climbing scene. Having said that after one session last week I've managed to catch a fucking cold.

Watch this space.
