Remember that all bourbons are whiskey but all whiskeys are certainly not bourbon. Just be careful out there. Life is full of choices.

I care about VO2 max. But not because of climbing.

True bourbon can ONLY come from KY. Remember that and live by it.

VO2Max? Is that one of those girly Zima like drinks?

I voted yes. I don't think aerobic fitness plays a big part in rock climbing though. I train from January-September pretty hard for duathlons and never notice a difference in my climbing fitness from when I'm not training.

About the same time that I was introduced to Bourbon (by the fine young men of Lexington), I began to run more and climb more....so, I'm sure that my VO2 was 'better.'

So, the lesson is: Bourbon makes your VO2 better.
