I have climbed with many women who learned to climb in their forties or fifties and could rip it up. Essentially, climbing is like other sports- you get out of it what you put in.

If you go into a situation saying it's not worth it unless you can perform at a certain level (whatever level you ascertain as good enough), then you are setting yourself up for frustration. Just go out, try it, and if you like it do it more.

thanks for all the advice, I don't know what type of climbing, hadn't gotten that far yet, trying to power DOWN on triathlon and do something slightly different and hopefully LESS time consuming, thus the not becoming a fanatic, but alas, my tri personality will probably kick into gear. Hope to start next month when femur and collarbone TOTALLY healed from cycling.
