Climmming

[spudtater]

Today I spent an hour dragging my tubby frame up a climbing wall repeatedly — something I haven't done in literally years. I had forgotten several things about climbing:

1. It bloody hurts
2. It's bloody terrifying
3. Fit, talented people are annoying
4. The routes marked "easy" aren't
5. You always end up pulling muscles that you previously had not even suspected the existence of
6. "Climbing wall vs. skin" is a rather one-sided match
7. Your fingers don't work for the rest of the evening
8. In general, "ow"

Can't wait to go again next week!

Sorry about this but it is looking unlikely we will get down there before Monday.

'Tis ok. Are you planning on AR1 on Monday, then?
