It is squeezing an endless number of hanholds, finding balance, making decisions..Climbing involves the beauty of nature and the simple joys of breathing and appreciating life.

Sometimes, I think we need to build confidence by making our minds believe we are strong.

While obtaining your goal of 5.12 running and other goals remember all that you have accomplished, and enjoy the process.
