Indoor bouldering

Wait, what? Is this a Sysiphus kind of hobby that I haven't heard about yet!

I’m not sure if you’re being serious right now and it doesn’t help that my Greek mythology knowledge is severely lacking (something I’ve wanted to learn more about).

So in case you don’t know what I’m talking about, indoor bouldering is like indoor rock climbing but not so high you need a belay system. Also, the climbs imitate boulders and so you might climb with all the holds being above your head, like the top of a cave.

As an expert in hobbies, I can honestly say this is freaking amazing. It’s got physical activity mixed in with problem solving and all the people I’ve talked to are super nice too (geeks, we are all geeks). If anything like me I find it hard to turn off my mind; this does that for me though. It’s meditative for me.

A bit after I posted, it occurred to me that it could've been that, but I was too lazy to edit my post.

I'm no a native English speaker, so I didn't think of it at first, sorry. Also I kind of liked the idea of a hobby where you rolled large boulders in your home.

No problem. I just want to say your English is amazing for a non-native speaker / writer.

Also, I carry my burdens around the home like Sisyphus so there is that 😂.
