I rock climb three times a week and have been doing so for 2-3 months. Here they are - red and swollen after throwing myself at the rock wall repeatedly. Most of the chalk has rubbed off. Yeah...they're not very pretty...

Oh, and those red spots beneath my knuckles? They're callouses that develop and fall off every month. Like a monthly cycle. You know what I'm talking about.

Oh, and here are some tattoos.
