If I'm climbing really slow, I kind of feel like, ‘Hmm, this is weird.' Like a fish without water.

I shriek when I am climbing at my absolute limit, but never shriek in the warm-up or when trying the moves. No matter how terrible it might sound, it helps me.

I didn't want to hike to the top of El Capitan and rappel down the route, and start fixing lines. For me it was really important to try to climb it from the ground up at first.

I've never had problems about passionate motivation to just keep climbing and keep training and pushing.
