Another climbing-free week :( All my partners are away.

...which means it was a bad week to remind me that buildings are climbable ;-)

I did my first boulder problem where you have to run, jump and kick off the wall to grab the starting hold. It was an easy one (relatively speaking), but I feel so badass. Wuxia skillz, I can haz.

I just climbed up my very first bridge. It was a good opportunity to try out my new crashpad. It's not a high bridge - a bike lane underpass - and not a difficult problem but it felt just a little too high for me to do it without a mat. Really makes a psychological difference to have that thing lying there just in case.

Oh, having got home and watched that video - awesome!

I SO enjoy reading everyone's comments and glee. I climbed a hard route I'd been struggling with and did it better and faster.

And I have new climbing shoes! La Sportiva Tarantulas!
