I'm really happy because I went bouldering at one of the many school playground climbing walls after an forced month-long break for health reasons.
I even got past two problems I didn't manage all winter, so apparently I haven't lost as much muscle mass as I feared. One is a neat little dyno where I have to reach the far hold with pretty much just the fingertips, and the other one is a relatively small handhold I'm hanging from with my left hand, no footholds, and then have to get my right hand up there as well. I *knew* both were possible, I just could never manage.
I didn't climb too long though, because yo it was hot. That climbing wall with the sand in front of it is like an oven.
