Friday glee apologises for lateness

The Friday post of glee is where you get to tell us about your climbing-related happiness this week.

It can be a new achievement or adventure, or just that you climbed and had fun; it can be that your favourite climbing wall is expanding or that you bought new rock shoes or that you found a cool ice-climbing vid on YouTube. No glee is too small -- or too big. Members are encouraged to cheer each other on and share the squee.

N.B. Please feel free to post your glee on any day of the week; the Friday glee is just to get the ball rolling.

To enhance this week's glee: Enzo Oddo crack-climbing in Utah.

Hi! I'm fairly new to climbing and I'm glad to have found this comm :)
At the end of last class I finally managed that one difficult yellow grip I'd failed at almost ten times that day (and without our trainer making the wall less steep!) and then three more, and I only failed at the one that only one guy from our group managed. I should do more strength training.
