I started climbing while I was in grad school in San Diego. A couple of my friends got really into it and became quite serious trad climbers. I never got that far - I tagged along on camping trips to Joshua Tree and the like and followed lead climbers and did a spot of bouldering. I went to a nearby (and very well-appointed) climbing gym regularly and could do 5.10b-c toprope climbs and V2 bouldering problems before my thesis ate my life. I made a few more outdoor trips while I was a postdoc, but I haven't climbed at all since I moved to England six years ago. I'd like to get into it again. I need to look into finding a decent climbing gym near Cambridge. Southern England also doesn't afford the kind of convenient outdoor climbing that Southern California did, so my motivation hasn't been high, especially since I got into running and that's very convenient. I'm hoping participating in this community will light a fire under my butt to get into it again.
