twelve by 2012: #4

Twelve by 2012 Goal #4: Complete a V3 route. Done! I’m feeling solid at V2 problems and am confident working on V3′s. I’m pleased with my progress, and I can’t wait to finish a V4…and then a V5, V6, V7, and so on. Rock climbing is addicting and challenging (in all ways good!). I’ll have my first outdoor excursion out west in December, which I’m thoroughly looking forward to.

Here are two videos of me climbing the V3 I completed. Unfortunately, they don’t show me finishing the route…only me climbing two thirds’s of the way and then falling. Ha. It was the end of the night, and my body was completely exhausted after two hours of climbing. What can I say?

P.S. It wasn’t really the 15th and 52nd take. Haha.
