divisionals
Ok so pay attention.

I am in the Female 14-15 Age group. I am in Division 4 which is made up of the states SC, Georgia, FLorida, Alabama, Mississippi, NC, Virginia, W. Virginia, and Tennessee.

Now, thats a hell of a lot of states. These competitions are divived into dificulty and speed. I competed in both.

In Divisional Championships, there is a qualifying round and a finals round. The top 10 climbers in the qualifying round, make it to finals. The top 6 climbers in finals make it to NATIONALS.

Okdid you get all that?

OK so the girls in 14-15 are all good friends. . We are more than just the competiton aspect. So yea. My friend Ashley, who is from Florida is really good.

So for qualifying round I had to climb 2 routes. I finished the first route. On the second route, i got pretty high.

SO i made it to finals in 2nd place. One place behind Ashley be just 1 point. Ok before you climb, you have to go into ISOLATION. I was the 20th climber out of 24 to climb the finals route. The reason for this is they called people out to climb the finals route in reverse order. So the people in last place going into finals, would be the first to climb.

Ok so maybe that was confusing. Whatever.

Ok so i climbed the finals route, and got pretty far on it. But i wasnt able to do one move, I didnt take the time to figure it out like i should have.

Ok so after i climbed that i had to speed climb. I did not want to speed climb at all, i was way tooo tired. But i did it anyway. .

FINALLY award ceremony came at like 7:45. After calling names of younger groups, the announcer finally got to 14-15.

Ok so i got 3rd out of all the girls 14-15 in those 9 states. NOt to damn shabby if you ask me. That was for difficulty.

I got 1st in Speed.

So all in all, i made it to Nationals and i think i did pretty damn good.
