I have climbed

[debitha]

My hands feel like I've been playing with a sand-grinder.

My muscles are OK today, except for my butt. I expect the pain to kick in tomorrow, although I have been stretching like crazy so I might yet fight it off.

I didn't do anything too difficult. I am horrendously out of shape, so I stuck to the easy ones (5a - Bristol Climbing Center uses the French scale) but was able to do 4 or 5 before my arms gave out. They all went pretty well, though. I remember all the technique stuff, so now it's just a question of building up the muscle tone. Which requires me to continue climbing on a regular basis. *gives self a stern look*

Seriously though, my butt hurts.

I'm constantly surprised at how much butts can ache after just a tiiiiiiny bit of exercise. I mean, you use it constantly all day, sat down at your desk, so it should be in trim. But as soon as you ask anything of it, it's on strike quicker than a French Fisherman.

(In other news: yay! Down to 40" waist trousers now. This is probably the slimmest you've known me. And it still seems t be shifting...)

In fairness, my butt was already in a bit of a state before I went climbing and I have just tipped it over the edge. On the plus side, Massage Guy gave me some stretches on Monday so hopefully that will help quickly. Damned if I know what to do about my feet though. Foot cramp up the wall - so not cool.

Well done you! *\o/*
