5.11!

[dagibbs]

I climbed a 5.11 route at the gym today. It's one that I had worked on before, but gotten stuck at one point. Was climbing with some people I don't regularly climb with, and got some good beta for the part where I was stuck, so got past that. Then finished the climb. I did take a couple falls along the way, but I think I may be able to link it, with a little work. If so, it will be my first clean climb over 5.10c!

Congrats! New icon?

Not new, but not one that I've used in a while. Mostly I forget to ever change my icon, so always end up with the default, but this time I remembered to switch to my "climbing" icon. ;)

Glad that you feel you are moving forward.

Well, I could argue that it was an "easy" 5.11 -- probably over-graded, cause, you know, I got up it. And, that's what I was thinking. But since I also climbed a 5.10d, and did a 5.10c first try (though, not without falls), I think I am still, slowly, getting better.
