Time for the 2015 Aims Thread! What are your aims for the year?

I'm sure I'll add to mine in due course but here they are to start:

Try and get out of London once a month for some climbing!
Boulder 7B+
Boulder 20 7A, 10 7A+, 5 7B
Sport 7b+
Trad - Maybe some more E3 O/S or E5/6 HP
Winter V
Climbing trips abroad: Thailand in Summer and hopefully others
Do one-armers again (without injuring myself)
Do some form of fitness (climbing indoors, run, pull-ups/press-ups) at least 50% of the days of the year - keep off that London belly

Boulder 20 7A, 10 7A+, 5 7B Done 18 7A, 8 7A+, 6 7B
Sport 7b+ Not yet, Ceuse to come - onsighted 7a though!
Trad - Maybe some more E3 O/S or E5/6 HP No trad whatsoever
Winter V No winter
Climbing trips abroad: Thailand in Summer and hopefully others Ceuse instead - been to Font 3 times so far this year!
Do one-armers again (without injuring myself) Nearly there

It's basically the end of the year so time for a round-up, how did everyone do?

KEEN FRESHER C wrote:

Try and get out of London once a month for some climbing! Did this right up until I tore a ligament in my wrist in July - being on a project in Leeds definitely helped this one
Boulder 7B+ Did Voltex in Font! (yes it's a dyno)
Boulder 20 7A, 10 7A+, 5 7B 19 7As, 8 7A+s, 6 7Bs - Would have definitely completed this had I not been injured...
Sport 7b+ Haha no way, too heavy. Did a few sweet 7bs, maybe 2016 for this one?
Trad - Maybe some more E3 O/S or E5/6 HP Absolutely no trad done whatsoever
Winter V Absolutely no winter done whatsoever
Climbing trips abroad: Thailand in Summer and hopefully others Went to Ceuse and Gorges du Tarn for two weeks - smashed it
Do one-armers again (without injuring myself) Not too bothered about this, got them then injured wrist climbing
Do some form of fitness (climbing indoors, run, pull-ups/press-ups) at least 50% of the days of the year - keep off that London belly Managed 31% which isn't too bad considering I spent the latter half of the year doing bugger all :oops:

Here's to 2016!
