Basement Workout Session and Indoor Climbing at EVO

This year, we have continued to pursue exercise and an active lifestyle at our household.  This, however, is a first as both Gavin and Tara were riding bike trainers in the basement together.  I think this is something we should do more often as it is great exercise and it makes for a better time than riding alone in the basement.  It's also easy to go at different speeds and stay next to each other this way!  Gavin was rocking his Boulder Cycle Sport kit for the session...looking sharp!

We have recently been introduced to a new climbing gym, EVO, that is reasonably close to our house so we have been climbing quite a bit more.  Here is Gage doing some bouldering and has reached the top of the wall above.

Gavin spent a lot of time working on this blue route on the middle boulder as he climbed next to Gage.

As I am not certified to belay the kids at EVO yet, they are free to use the auto-belays.  Here is Gage close to the top on this route almost 40 feet up.

Here is another picture of Gage on a second ascent up the same route.  This has become a bit of a Friday afternoon tradition for us because you can climb from 4pm to 10 pm for only ten dollars and includes any gear you need to "rent" from EVO.
