The wall was an easy 5 minute walk from the hotel. |
Starting out on the first route. |
Getting near my high point on route one. |
2nd route. |
Speed climbing. |
This competition was the first one that I participated in the speed climbing event. I came in 36th out of 49. The top 24 were all Russian. It was also the speed climbing championship so each country got a team ranking. They take the top 2 men's and 2 women's scores and add them together. Gord and I both climbed but there were no Canadian women who wanted to come to Russia to participate. Overall Canada came in 7th.
I was expecting Russia to be kinda bad but it was definitely one of the best and most fun for the actual competition.
