the wax was great, it was ideal for this race.
I practically did double poling for at least half of the way.
I finished 71 out of 155 total, 21 out of 38 women, and 1st out of 4 or 5 in my age group.

I have a pulled muscle from twisting my ankle on Sunday, so it hurt a lot in a few certain positions, so I decided to take it easy today. I started by on-siting a 5.9 as a warm up on lead. Then I did a 5.10a that I tried on my first two days back at the gym, this time finally completing it clean on lead. Then on lead I on-sited a nice 5.10b with slopers or shallow, bad jug holds. But it was nice. Then on lead I on sited a 5.10a on one of the taller walls that had nice smaller jug holds. Then on top rope I on-sited another 5.10b (there were no lead clips). Then, back on lead, I on-sited another 5.10b on a wall I haven't climbed on before. Then I top roped on a 5.11a just for fun, with 6 rests. My dad wanted to climb the crag so I was holding the area while somebody was finishing up a climb by the crag. Then, I tried to lead climb a 5.10c, and I made it with two rests.
