The Challenge

40 Laps on ten different routes at the Owl Tor (near Santa Maria, CA). This is approximately 1600 feet of climbing that overhangs a total of 650 feet, averaging about 12b/c in difficulty. (These will not be redpoints, I just have to do all the moves and hopefully all the clips.) The routes are:

1. Power of Eating (11d)
2. When the Sea Doesn’t Want You (12a)
3. Anchor Punch (12a)
4. Auto-Magic (12a)
5. White Cougar (12b)
6. Hell of the Upside-down Sinners (12b)
7. The Natural (12c)
8. The Old Pro Skill (12d)
9. Chips Ahoy (12d)
10. Old Shatterhand (12d)
    
    

The Obstacles:

1. Left shoulder is injured. Kevin Brown has looked at it and recommended rotator cuff exercises.
2. Heat. In June it’s often over 100 degrees at the Owl Tor.
3. Time. A lap every 15 minute is ridiculously fast, but 40 laps will still take 10 hours at this rate.
4. Skin, work, marriage, et. al.
