And this is how you make the goal seem insurmountable.

I'm trying to climb every day of the weekends and two or three afternoons during the week. So we'll see how far I get.

Sorry dude. But what's up with this two pitch a day bullshit? if your goal is to climb 1000, maybe you should do more than warm up and go home?

This is a good question and one I don't really have an answer for. Typically, I just end up wasting a bunch of time. The other key is that I don't count a pitch that I didn't lead free. So if I seconded it, if I hung, if I toproped it, its invalid for the sake of this list. The goal is to get me climbing more, in better style. So for me, the only climbs that count are the ones that are clean. This also doesn't include bouldering or projecting anything. I've set a very narrow criteria for what is counted as climbing, for the purpose of this list, and so its going to drag down the number of ascents.

Maybe this will provide the impetus for somebody else to go out and climb more.
