November Climbing

I've been doing a lot of schooling and climbing this month. My friends Tom and Erica came out from Colorado and I have been spending my weekends climbing with them and others in Farley. During the week I've been going to class, coaching, and training.

I would like to congratulate Tom on sending so many v8-v10's in New England! Especially Speed of Life! That is one beautiful climb and one of the many great feats Tom has had this month. 

My training has been going well and I feel like I'm actually progressing..however it doesn't help when I get seasonal sinus infections. boo. Anyways, I just enjoy training. I enjoy feeling strong and I enjoy anaerobic activity.

My weekends climbing outside have been filled with great weather, eventful sends from others, and uneventful climbing from me. I have sent nothing! But I'm actually not frustrated. It is fun to get outside and throw myself at some hard climbs before I go back to my weekly routine. Unfortunately I have been spending this weekend doing homework (Actually, I am on a homework break right now). I hope that I can get most of it done so that I can go to Great Barrington tomorrow! But If i do not go, I will just do my homework in the sun outside. I never thought that I would skip climbing for schoolwork...

The one semi-eventful thing that has happened to me occurred 2 weeks ago...

WTH is that lump??

I got this giant lump on what I belive is my flexor muscle. It doesn't hurt and I've been climbing on it just fine...although I am a little concerned...Thoughts??

I'm going to see a specialist next week so hopefully it is nothing to be worried about.
