Wow, this thread has come back from the dead.
My daughter and I just joined the local indoor climbing center. I had done a teeny bit of outdoor climbing way back in the . . . mid 80's
.
It's fun! I apparently have developed a "caution" (not a fear, but momentary freakout LOL) over the heights, but I'm pretty much over it after a couple of sessions.
I'll be using the climbing as a recovery day type activity, just something extra to do to stay active on off days.
It's also fun doing something with my teen daughter, hanging out and climbing together.
We'll see what it does to this old body. I'm beyond ever being hot, but I'll take warm. LOL I'm happy to have my daughter be active and strong; however, her getting a hot (hotter) body makes a dad nervous; she's just getting into the dating game. At least she's a black belt, too.
