the hard way up

went rock climbing today... what a challenging experience.
felt I didn't push myself hard enough... but i'm so overwhelmed, having to juggle the fear of falling, the desire to push myself harder and listening to my body which is straining to hold on to the wall.

many times I was just glad to be back on solid ground. But I don't mind going again... afterall, it's probably a bit more technique than I know and i've only done it twice. :)
