Climbing indoors and out notes from somewhere cold, for now. Rosa tag:granitediary.ivus.mom,2026-08-24:/ 2026-10-30T15:43:00Z 2026-10-30T15:43:00Z tag:granitediary.ivus.mom,2026-10-30:/posts/2026-10-30-a-muggy-wednesday-with-the-crash-pad/

Monday was the first damp day in a while, so I made the most of it with the chalk bag. The difference was small but obvious: a strong session.

This week I trained on the hangboard, and it went differently than expected. None of projecting a hard problem is complicated; it just takes time.

I wasn't going to write this up, but Anouk asked how it went. I suspect a woman who climbs like water would have done it in half the time.

Back to climbing after a longer than planned break. The funny thing is that working on footwork worked.

I spent most of Sunday training on the hangboard, with the radio on. Gus sulked, which helped.

A short one today: I sent my project and wanted to write it down before I forget. Last autumn I would have given up on the hangboard at this point.
