Kids

Well.. seems like T was strong due to illness.. it is not too uncommon that one is strong before illness sets in.. then again I could be wrong ,-)
Went back to KV as I felt ok and was keen on the white problem from last session. Had a good warm up 5.3min trv then some easy problems from blue to black. Happy to do the black problem I tried with T last time 1st go today, amazing what a bit of rest can do! Then over to the white and did it on 3rd go.. could have done it before but had some issue with sweaty hands and nervousness at the crux. First white at KV :-D
Tried another new white under the Tunnel.. super nice and hard, possible to get to the Zone hold with some work and then gets very hard...cool! Something to work at..fingers, toehook, heelhook..what can you want more?
Had my watch with me today and mostly climbed alone, good rest periods.
1 arm hangs were just as last time, on the other hand managed to do 3 ring dips (not that good style)..
All in all ... looking ok. Next week will be hard to get some climbing time due to other things that need to be done after work.. so I guess it will be some BM sessions instead.
---------------------------------------
ps:OFF TOPIC ..Ah yes, the title...rather sick of kids at KV and now, I mean especially climbing parents with kids, where the parents are known people and have climbed for a while... why is it that some of them just can't tell their kids to NOT run/play under climbers, to NOT just climb/play where one is training, to just let them roam free without telling them to watch out and just let them kick balls on other people etc.!! Have seen this at other Gyms as well... but find that KV is not good at fixing this.. maybe an extra staff on the floor? Or is it that just because they are known people it doesn't matter? All parent when coming to climb should have to sign a paper stating that they WILL watch over/take care of their kids! Every time! I am a parent and aware of the implications but it can't be that hard?

  1. Good on ya mate! Prog is always fun and you really deserve it. Must wait just a bit more than I will take up the hunt;-)
    And yeah, parents at KV sucks. I just tend to not care if I hurt the kids that run about. That keeps the irritation at bay.
