700 more words on structural archaeology. I am seduced by the massive Proceedings of the nth Congress of Roman Frontier Studies, all big and red or blue and shiny. Alas.
Running: I managed a mile in 9 minutes 20 seconds. Excellent progress there. Climbing...
Well. I sent, clean, for the second time ever, my red 6A+ wall, which I like so much. I improved on the horrors that are the reachy blue 6B, and the pinchy yellow 6B, and felt very pleased with myself for getting a few metres up the godawful orange 6C and the godawful white 6C. I also sent the neon 3, and the grey 5. That was a workout, I tell you - even though I was, as I said to Lad, the nice Czech postdoc, cheating like an Olympic medallist on the blue and the white.
(I'd spent the first hour traversing. Taking it easy and traversing, but that's still work.)
