Quick On The Draw X

On Saturday a record crowd descended on my local gym, Adventure Rock, for the 10th Annual Quick On The Draw competition.  I have had the pleasure of attending the last 9 QotD's and they are always a good time with this year being no exception.

Afraid of getting shown up by a bunch of climbers in Men's Open who are younger, stronger and better looking with their shirts off I chose to instead help setup for the comp.  Despite my competitive urges, I find the prep work to be more fun and rewarding anyhow.

 The day of the comp I wandered around catching up with people from out of town I don't see that often, snapping the occasional picture.  Here are a few I took of the winners in finals (apologies to Sarah and Annaleah who flashed Women's Advanced on a line I couldn't really see).

 More pictures to come...

I will update this post once full results are available.  Here's a quick poll while we wait...

    It was, indeed a fantastic comp. I had a blast competing and ever better the next day getting to try other routes outside my division. Thanks for helping set the comp for all the competitors!
