Back To Austria
The countdown for another world cup.
We have been in Innsbruck for two weeks now and although its great to be back in Innsbruck, its been a rough time.
Unfortunately I have been feeling sick.
Alex and myself have come down with some crazy bug and we have been unable to do much besides watch movies and chill out over the last week. Some might think sitting on a couch watching movies does not sound like a bad way to be spending a week but when you are trying to prepare for a world cup its not what you want to be doing.
We were meant to spend a couple of weeks bouldering in Switzerland but the weather was not great down there and as we both had this crazy sickness coming on so we thought it best we head back here to Innsbruck and chill.
It seems like we are not the only ones suffering with sickness though as it seems most of Innsbruck is complaining about not feeling 100% with this sickness.
I had my first session today after 3 days of doing nothing and unfortunately I still felt crap so fingers crossed I spark up soon.
After the comp is done here in Innsbruck, Alex and myself are off to America to compete in another Bouldering World Cup in Vail, CO.
I did really well last year in vail making the finals and finishing in 6th place so hope I can better that this year.
On another note, I have bought myself a rope again and i'm getting keen to tie back in and get pumped.
It will be interesting to see what I can do since I have a good base of bouldering strength now.
I know ill have a lot of work to do to get my fitness level back up but Im super motivated to do it and I know a few of my mates back in England will be keen to get on the fitness bandwagon with me when i'm back in UK.
Enough talking about getting on a rope for now, time to start focussing on feeling better for the comp this weekend.
