...or Used to Anyway

A personal story in the experience: I Rock Climb
T ruth is, I haven't climbed in years. Well, once or twice on an artificial wall, but that's it. In high school I used to spend my weekends up in the mountains, or on a climbing wall. I was the golden boy of the high school team, and I out-climbed even my instructors. In the national competitions in my country, I usually ended up 4'th...never made the top 3 though.
I miss it a lot! I miss the danger, the heights, the strain on every muscle in your body, and I have yet to experience a higher level of trust you put in your fellow climbers.
I would go back to climbing any day if I had the means.
