Climb Iowa

Notes

I didn't do the 6 hour competition/event last night, but ended up having a very long climb today. Met up with Adam and Jess for some top-rope. I again onsighted a 5.10cd, which was motivating. Wasn't quite ready for a 5.11 though.

Adam wanted to boulder, so I transitioned to lead with Spencer and Russ, which actually felt pretty good as I did 3 5.9's and a 5.8. I did fall on the final hold of the last 5.9 for my first lead fail in a long time, but it felt very natural to fall, even from well above my last clip.

I also caught a few falls while belaying, probably my most intensive lead belay day ever, but it was good practice.

Don't think I've ever had a normal 3 hour day at the gym, but it felt great and I could have kept going. The downside was a late lunch and nearly taking a nap before giving up on a run for the day (my excuse was to rehap by hamstring, as I'll also take Monday off likely.)
