Climbing, even indoors when the chances of something going wrong is pretty low, can still be pretty scary! I freak out :-)

I did not find it relaxing or enjoyable in any way. I should count it as an interval workout with all the spikes of adrenaline I experienced (both climbing and belaying!). I used to climb when I was in high school - back when I was invincible. Being from the middle of a cornfield in Illinois, our climbing gym was in an old grain silo.
