...Dreamin' the Day Away...

I find myself thinking more and more about getting away from it all... it has been close to 10 months since my last epic climbing trip with Joleen, Lorraine, Jason, Manuel and I'm itching to experience it all again. I am hoping that my current injuries will pass... that I will be strong and in good shape all around.

...I have my doubts.

I was climbing my hardest just before christmas making quick work of a project in Squamish called It's About Time - V6... feeling strong.

Since then if has gone down hill...
my Sportiva Mantra's are now bagged out...
my right index finger is giving me problems... and I seem to have put on some unnecessary weight in the last month.

I think its time to re-enact my strict diet habits... start hiking/trail running again... start my integration/weight training again.

The bouldering competition in February will be a good judge as to where I'm sitting right now in terms of ability...

*Excited*...
They're here! They're here!
My new Scarpa Stix have finally arrived!!

*update*
after two hours at home I was finally able to get them both on my feet... completely :)


*update*
after five days and some slightly excrutiating moments my shoes are breaking in fabulously!! They give me firm support in all the right places with (now that they are softening up) comfort that is unbelievable!!

...I'm very excited to see what these shoes and I will be capable of in the near future together :)
