Vertical Endeavors

It's been kind of slow at work so I had the guys make a pull-up bar between Bay 102 & 103. It's about 10 feet long so you can do a lot more than pull-ups. I'm working on greasing the groove on pull-ups as I only have 2 weeks until the Tactical Challenge. Every time I go between the bays at work I have to do a pull-up.

Went climbing at VE last night. Met up with Tom, Cheryl and Jim had a really good night climbing. I was climbing 5.10's up to 5.10c consistantly, definite improvement. I feel pretty strong and I also feel more flexible, carry over from my Bikram Yoga. It's nice when Goals start complimenting each other.

I am going to set a new goal of climbing 5.11 by Oct 31, 2009. There is a pretty big jump between 5.10's and 5.11. I have to continue my grip training, flexibility training and improving my climbing technique to acheive this goal.

I'm really excited about the outdoor climbing season !
