That's Wendy F'ing Ong. Outside (Rock and Ice). 2014 IFSC World Championships. I like to think that I am a total renaissance woman and polymath with a myriad of interests and pursuits. The sad fact is, though, that a lot of the times I think I am a one-dimensional meathead jock who spends a lot of time climbing, or more often than not, recovering from climbing-related injuries and thinking about climbing hard.

The process of piecing back together humpty-dumpty was a long, arduous and very painful one. To see if I co...

That's Wendy F'ing Ong. Outside (Rock and Ice). 2014 IFSC World Championships. At the 2014 ABS Paraclimbing Bouldering Competition, I decided to train for and compete at the 2014 Paraclimbing Nationals, as it was a qualifier for the 2014 Paraclimbing World Championships (in Spain, which added much more incentive than say, Iowa – no offense guys!
