Are you planning on any other local comps this year? What about . . .

The kids and I just registered for Psychedelia 2016!!! (October 22nd) It is going to be a BLAST!!! Anyone else going? Don't know if they will have a master's category, but does it matter?

So glad to see this topic! I’m 47 will be 48 but the next registration for my gyms annual boulder comp. I move at V4 , lol. But hey,I am really considering registering mostly just for the fun of participating. And showing us old people can!

20 yrs ago I climbed in one comp. I won Men's Expert, and even adding up the the 2nd and 3rd place finishers ages combined, still fell many years short of mine.....
