Thanks to my friends who roped me into climbing again, as they took on the Social deal that was happening beginning of the year, I decided to join them! Now kind of hooked!
We mostly climb in Bermondsey's Arch in the Biscuit Factory. I prefer this branch compared to the one in London Bridge as it is bigger, lighter and airy.
This week I have go even more hooked with climbing as behind my work Walkers were doing a campaign launch of their new crisp, they built a temporary high climbing wall!
Since Monday till today I had climbed on my lunch break! ranging from 18m to 22m walls on the crisp, I thought why not! I now have my own climbing shoes, put good use to them and get many bags of free crisps! hehehe :P
I managed to conquer the 18m wall but still not good enough to reach the top with the 22m - forearms just tired out 3/4 way up the wall. Top rope is challenging and it doesn't help that the holds on the wall were turning >:(
I don't want to climb too often that I'll get hench on the upper body! After this weeks climbing, a grazed elbow grazed knee and calluses building up on my hand, I need to take it easy! hehe
