Finally a nice slow thermal brought me to cloudbase and away from the towing field. I haven’t had much luck earlier this year so it was nice to go cross country in the Netherlands. Started in Barchem, landed in Varsseveld and hitchhiked back to the field in three easy and entertaining rides.
Running
An Endomondo challenge made by some colleagues encouraged me to pick up my running shoes and go out for a 5k run. The small forest at Hoevelaken is just big enough to do this.
Sport climbing
This year I started sport climbing as an additional work out to my normal weekly training on the indoor wall in Nieuwegein. It is great to see and feel the progress in technique and muscle strength! The easier routes cost less energy already and it’s easier to concentrate on the moving and balancing of the body.
It won’t be long before we can go outside and do some rock climbing 🙂
Pre Worlds and Colombian Open
Taking off during the Pre Worlds and Colombian Open competition.
Nevada
Decided to buy a new wing: I will change from my Gin Sprint XS to a Gradient Nevada 22. It seems to be a promising high end EN B glider.
