We have, once again, visited the climbing gym. I have, once again, climbed. I am reminded, yet again, of how very much out of shape I let myself become. I have no real idea of just how sore I'm going to be when this post goes up, but my best guess is groan.
The good news is that I am, slowly, getting back into better shape. The bad news is I'm definitely not there yet. And the other good news is that everybody had a really good time, and we were there for about three hours. So, y'know, plenty of opportunity to wear myself out and remind my body of what kinds of things it used to do.
And it's really not a bad way to exercise, either. Like, it's not impacting the joints; it's working both strength and cardio -- and balance too, for that matter. Even limiting myself to the faces with the auto-belays, there are plenty of different things to try. Plus, y'know, I like being way up in the air. Especially if I can just let go and know I'll get back down safely.
