Rock Out and improvement.
 

D and I went out to the Rock out Place yesterday. It had been a little over a week since the last time I climbed so for me it was a nice way to get out and to exercise. I also knew that I wanted to try and conquer a few routes that I had not been able to get the last time I was there. So immediately when we got there I tried out this purple route that had been kicking my ass the last time I went. It was technically a V1 which is a very low level in terms of the climbing and even as a beginner you should be able to get it. I was not successful. Mostly because the higher I got the more "reachy" it became and I just don’t have the flexibility or the reach to get to the next one. But I did get higher up the wall then last time and for me that was a total win. 

But it also seemed that our mutual friend was having problems so I ended up spending a good portion of my time helping him with his tinder profile while I took turns with D on the wall. There were two routes that he had introduced me to and I swear that next time I will get them. They are so difficult and I was really struggling but each time I climbed them I got a little bit more experience and each time I knew how to do them, my body was just not letting me do the route. 

I will say that I am getting better, and my ability to slowly move it is improving. I’m still pretty shy about climbing and I’m weird about people helping out and people watching me but I am trying to get over that. Luckily D is there to make sure it doesn’t become too much for me and is there let me know that I am doing  my best. I want to continue to climb and soon I will be making a transition from 9Round gym to the Rock Out gym so that I can go more and master those routes. 

I can’t wait to see how I progress and what is to come.
