Getting ready for regionals is crucial right now. As many of us know USA Climbing has changed the format of regionals this year; 6 routes 4 minutes on and 4 minutes off. Knowing that, my coach thought it would be a good idea if we had a mock on-site competition. 

This was a great idea! I tried to pretend that it was regionals: no phones, eating well the night before, etc. Not only id this work, but made me more psyched for regionals in three weeks.
