In the Junior 8a ranking game the 18-year-old is #6. "The most valuable lesson I can take from this trip is to enjoy the process. If it was easy it wouldnโ€™t be worth doing. If itโ€™s hard there is doubt and worry but you must keep going. Sending the route is only half the fun!" Full report on his blogspot.
