Returned to Rock Climbing after injury — the comeback experience

I'd been training Rock Climbing for two years when I picked up an injury that kept me out for four months. Coming back was harder mentally than physically. My dynos had regressed and redpoint I'd taken for granted needed rebuilding.

the outdoor climbing community was what brought me back to myself — about six weeks into the comeback. finger injury risk was a greater factor in the comeback phase than it had been before injury. I'm now back to pre-injury level and training smarter. The sport is more rewarding now than it was before, because I know what it feels like to miss it.
