So I left work at lunch on Friday and got ready to head up to Albuquerque for the Yank-N-Yard 2012. I expected the drive to take about 3.5 hours so we left at around 1:00 PM for the 5:00 PM isolation. The drive, however took about 4.5 hours and I had conceded to not participate in the evenings qualifiers, but rather the citizens comp the next day. I took my time getting to the hotel and got to the gym at about 5:50 PM. At that point I was in no mental state to climb anytime soon.
Of course, as things go, the manager, Brian, let me know that if I went to iso right then, I could still climb. I went around to the back, turned in my phone and started warming up. After almost 2.5 hours of waiting, I went out to my first onsight comp. The routes were hard, only seeing a few tops each.
After I was done, there were only two more competitors and we waited for the list of people that made it to finals.
