Dru Posted January 3, 2002 Posted January 3, 2002 So did anybody make any New Years climbing resolutions they feel like sharing? Quote
erik Posted January 3, 2002 Posted January 3, 2002 i want to be able to lead index .11 clean.i want to be able to manage my dysfunctional friendshipo/relationship with climbing better so i can have the best of both worlds! (doubt it though)i want to climb with drul, so i can put mtn guide to the handicap on my resume. and i want to canoe the nahani from the headwaters to the artic all man powered and stop by a certain valley for some mtns and it is not the cirque. cept for the flight back out. and if anyone wants to give me money or free gear for this trip we will have a packet ready soon!

verticalturtle Posted January 3, 2002 Posted January 3, 2002 Whats up Dru? To respond to your query I think they really turn out to be disallusions rather than resoultions. How about have more and less , get more , and more . Sounds like a good general plan to me. Eh? Quote
willstrickland Posted January 3, 2002 Posted January 3, 2002 Basically, four: 1. Make training properly bewteen now and April the most important focus in my life. That covers alot: nutrition, sleep, mental training, weight room, climbing gym, and actually doing routes to have fun and break up the training monotony. My immediate focus is getting enough sleep (which I think is about 9-9.5hrs for me when training) and decreasing my caffeine/alcohol intake. I enjoy the actual "training" except marathon cardio work. 2. Pay more attention to nutrition, hydration, and strategy during climbs, while trying to climb long rock routes fast. (Think 36hr non-stop wall pushes with the "team food" being 2 gallons of cytomax and 80 packs of GU) 3. To prepare for specific climbs. Normally in the valley it's a "what do you feel like climbing today?" deal, but I've got a set partner for a few months with very similar goals and he's one of the best partners I've had. I think by preparing for specific climbs we'll get more done and put less overuse stresses on fingers and elbows. We both know we're already strong enough to climb the routes we aspire to this season if the cruxes pitches were at the crags, it's a matter of picking up speed, endurance, feel, and a calm mind. Once the speed4. To get out and suffer with some of you CC'ers before I bug out of the NW. Jan looks pretty packed with CC'ers, I'll have some weekends in Feb (plus the Rainbow Wall in Feb). Maybe I'll get up Rainier with one of youse before I bail...unless you got some older dude named Judd on the team Quote

Cpt.Caveman Posted January 4, 2002 Posted January 4, 2002 Keep climbing all the moderates I can get my lardness up. Climb more at Index. Climb more ice. Attempt Synchronicity soon. Try to keep up with Rock Ninja that is nearly 30 years my superior! Quote
Dru Posted January 4, 2002 Author Posted January 4, 2002 Yo Caveman I am in for Synchroslurpee. I will lead the crux 5m pillar! Quote
Bronco Posted January 4, 2002 Posted January 4, 2002 I said it before, I'll probably say it again: More climbing Less spraying Anybody wanna go to Index tomorow? Quote
BigWallBigBallsRocky Posted January 4, 2002 Posted January 4, 2002 I vow to drink more and pee less. With some muscle control I should be able to further increase the size of my balls! I also vow to continue to expose and reveal RURP as pope and stand supreme as #1 Big Wall Master of cc.com. Quote
