Micro Review - 2024.
- 1462km cycled in 2024, compared to 278km in 2023.
- Turned 50.
- Still climbing better than my 8 year old and my 12 year old, but their skiing is far better than my snowboarding.
- Got three new teeth - implants, painful.
- Ate freshly cooked artichoke hearts, a new culinary experience for me, I liked it!
- Trips to NYC, Dublin, Mallorca, Dheli, Washington.
- Climbed in Fontainebleau, managed a font 5b, but would have liked to have ticked a 6a.
- We got two cats! My first pets. They are awesome.
- 80 climbing workouts, 452 boulder problems sent, max of V5 (four done), 76 V4s done. Overall more volume than in 2023, but lower difficulty, though a lot of that is due to now trying to send on the moon board mini where the grades are substantially harder than gym grades.
