Well there is a little bit of water in the local run once again it needs topping up with rain. Sunday brought it up a little for a quick blast but nothing special. Doug Ammons gave a wonderfull and very interesting talk on Tuesday, if you missed it he is heading south for a few more, well worth  the effort.

Then we get to Wednesday, mr murg told me to get fired up for a hard night in the climbing wall. This has become a twice sometimes three time a week trip to the indoor gym to give ourselves a good hiding whilst tied to a rope. The training is paying off the pair of us are stronger and bolder since the start of the winter and rairing to go for, a dare I say it dry summer. A general theme has been seeing what challenges people have been up to. Allot of the winter lecture series has started the ball rolling. The inspiring ones are as follows, Leo Holding- Elcap and Half Dome in 24 hrs, Tim Emmet- Old man of Hoy and base jump down, Doug Ammons paddle the Stikine. The list goes on, to include the Bob, all of the lakes classics in 24hrs, and so on. Basicaly set yourself a good challenge this year, hopefully we still have a wet month some where between here and June so we might get the odd pladdling one in too.

So to set off the 24 hour challenge this week from 7pm yesterday to today 7pm I managed to squeeze in 3 hours of climbing, an hours run, aprrox an hour on the bike back and forth from college twice, 8 hard hours of studying! A quick blast down the Kent and run back to the car. Phew I'm goosed.

Whats your challenge this year?!

Cheers
