Nina Williams Instagram – Mini break-through on the broken foot front 🦶🏼I’ve graduated from aircast to stiff @scarpana Spin Ultras, which have turned out to be decent climbing shoe substitutions. Yesterday I toproped some vert/slab that felt pretty intense on my foot; nothing over a 2/10 pain but I was definitely feeling the push on my bones more than usual. Then we stopped at the steep Jacob’s Ladder where @ericlemieux1 sent with a quickness and, seeing the campus-y movement, I felt curious about giving it a shot.
The biggest moment of uncertainty was the last throw out of the roof, where I had to toe-in more with the right foot. Let out a little power yell 😅 cause I was scared of potential pain! But nothing flared up, my fingers stuck the jug, and I finished up my first proper climb in 9 weeks.
This may not look like it but I’m still taking things slow and conservative. The bones are knitting together steadily and my foray back to climbing continues. I’m happy with where I’m at and look forward to more of these moments ☺️
