the friday post of glee

In the future this post will have a better name and format. For now, I have five minutes before I have to leave for work.

Post your climbing glee here. Accomplishments, yes, but also just those moments when you had a blast. There are no rules about what makes climbing glee. If it's climbing related and it made you proud or happy, it belongs here.

I went climbing again and managed not to stress out my rotator cuff strain!

I back-and-footed across a corner, all the way up to the ceiling, without touching a single hand-hold! (I have a tendency to invent these weird little projects for myself.)

I got a "Jesus, you're fast!" out of someone watching while I did a loop round the easy circuit on the overhang (my smug, let me show you it).

Also, the new shoes are now millimetres away from perfection. Which, at the moment, means millimetres of PAIN, but I have been reliably informed that they will stretch that tiny bit more.

Assuming they make it those last few millimetres, yes. *glares at them*

But they really suit my foot shape, so if they break in a bit further, they're going to be both technical and tolerably comfy.
