A look back at our Easter 🐣 trip to Fontainebleau this year, it already seems a long time ago!
It was a bit of a mixed bag of emotions over the trip. I’d been training for months leading into the trip, and was starting to see the benefits translating back onto the wall. But I had wanted to stay away from grade chasing, and really wanted it to just be a fun trip. So while I was trying not to go into the trip with expectations, I think I was just kidding myself and a part of me had set the bar high 🤦🏻♀️ It wasn’t really about hitting a certain grade, more going in to (hopefully) prove to myself that I had gotten better over the years since we’d last been to Font.
We had a one week quick hit of the forest planned, and knowing how long it usually takes me to project and send stuff (read multiple days/weeks), I did feel the pressure to climb something I hadn’t done before.
The rest of the story is being told in a new video we have out on our YouTube channel (link in bio), if you’ve read this far, and you’re curious to hear the rest, I hope you enjoy it!
