Felt pretty good today after my light session yesterday so decided to do a back-to-back day. I typically try to stay away from consecutive days of climbing to stop myself from pushing too hard or risking injury.

Today’s climb was pretty solid. Ended up with over 40 points on the day, which is great since my last 40+ point session was when I tested the V6 waters on 1/23/18.

Here’s the day’s stats:

In case you're wondering what happened on the V4s today...there was one V4 that I kept wiping out on the first few times I tried it. Ultimately I got it on the fourth try, but it was a little tougher for me than normal. It's always good to get humbled by a route a few times before you send it.
