hawkwing_lbAccomplished:
Greek, 1.5 chapters; Latin, present active indicative, past imperfect, some vocabulary; eight chapters (two-thirds!) of Averil Cameron's The Later Roman Empire. CV copied.
Writing: .5K
Running: 38 minutes for 3 miles, intervals.
Rowing: 15 minutes for 2.9km, max. resistence.
Climbing: some fiddling about with traverses, another hold higher on one of my project routes (only four or five moves to the top now, but man, I need chalk soon), failed a couple more, one of which I can normally do. That was the end of my upper-body strength for the day.
...I think we'll keep the rowing. It appears to work some of the same forearm and shoulder muscles as climbing, and god knows I need to improve my upper-body strength if I want to send these overhangs ever.
I'm currently undecided on whether to head in for more gym tomorrow. It might be the better part of valour to account this getting-started-week and cut myself a small bit of slack. On the other hand, I only have two months before classes begin again, and I don't want to stay in the habit of missing good opportunities.
