Small Victory

Tonight at the climbing gym, I did something I’ve wanted to do for a while, climb onto the platform which is a structure in the middle of one of the bouldering rooms. The room is circular and has an “X” shape climbing wall in the middle. When you climb the X or any of the walls it takes up to a platform on the next floor. I had been climbing the “red” route for a while and decided it was time to go over the edge. I used brute force at the end to pull myself onto the platform. My first victory can a little cost, a white chest as my black t-shirt rubbed on the floor of the platform. I was stoked and climbed the wall a couple of more times each with a little more flare. Hmm, this to find a new color marker…
