L'espiadimonis 8c by Lukas Sager (15)
Could you please describe your normal weekly routine with schooling and climbing?
Wake up at ten, having breakfast, e-learning with the French system CNED. Climbing in the afternoon under great conditions. Projecting, onsighting or just spooling. Depending on how I feel, I go ice bathing and stretching. 2 times a week. The last few weeks have been great, I had a lot of fun without my parents.
It was easier to stay motivated to climb than to do some e-schooling. I really progress in English, as I met so many people from all over the world. I will do an exam in May, so yet I will crush some 8b+ school stuff. Working harder than ever.
