A returning

[nanila]

I went climbing last night for the first time in six years. Since I moved to the UK, I haven't been once. It was additionally exciting since I got to introduce it to my boyfriend, who's never been climbing before.

He liked it enough to contemplate buying shoes today and to suggest we return next week. Additionally, I managed to onsight a V0 (did I mention it's been six years?) and was pleased that I could still get round overhangs - with a lot of scrabbling, but still. Success! Hurrah!

\o/ Yay for getting back into it! And yay for being able to handle overhangs after a six-year lay-off -- that's impressive!

Thanks for the tip on the CCCC! Their site is what led me to the bouldering wall at Kelsey Kerridge. :)

Yay for getting back to rock climbing! :D I only got back in about three months ago after a year and a half break. It feels great, doesn't it?

Great, and also a little bit hurty. I had to go and lie in a hot bath for half an hour after our session so that I could move my arms above my head again!
