Bozeman

It turns out the majority of the team didn't go, three of us went, haha. It was our first time in a roped competition this year. We weren't ready for it, I placed somewhere around 8th with three routes completed. Our next competition is in our teams' hometown, Cody, Wyoming. The weather has been better though and I've been climbing outside. I lead my first 5.11, Seam Dream, then another 5.11, Black Hole. I went bouldering a few days later and sent one of Cody's famous boulder problems Ripper Point (V5). The most kinesthetic boulder problem I've climbed yet.

Startin out

Lately the weathers been crappy so I haven't been getting outside, but last time I did get outside I sent Fingerpaint my first V7 outside. Our climbing team has a newfound inspiration, we don't know what the inspiration is though, but everyones been coming to practice. We have a new training plan that has like 3 or 4 phases which get more intense with each phase. Right now I'm pumping out with phase 2 so I'm expecting major benefits. On Saturday we went to a comp in Billings. Our team had 3 first places. I got first overall just barely. This upcoming Saturday the majority of our team is going to Bozeman to compete.
