Utah Is Trying To Kill Me

Objective : Climbing Stamina

Training : 1 boulder problem every minute for 40 minutes

Notes: After a long, death-defying drive from Utah, all I could manage was a stamina workout. One cave of the bouldering area at Vertical Heaven was reset so most of the problems were onsight, V0-V3. I tried to down-climb the same problem which left me laying on the ground panting a lot. Breathing heavy never hurt anyone. Problems were less "jumpy", which is good, but still ripperville, which is less good.
