After a week off to get some rest and perspective on it all i ve finally figured out what it is about climbing that makes it so special for me. At the end of the day theres just no bullshit in it. Just you and the rock and nothing else, no ref to make a bad call, no teacher that "judges" how good you did, no boss that "knows" you can do better. Just you and the rock and your performance on it. If your good enough youll get to the top and if you dont your not, theres nothing else to blame but yourself. You cant buy technique, steal endurance or fake strength. Its a real measure of real performance under real pressure. No bullshit.
Brad.
