Ting Ting is an adventurer who discovered climbing at 32 with no athletic background and went all in, driven by the fear of running out of time. After seven years of vanlifing and traveling frugally to pursue climbing, she’s tackled alpine first ascents in Asia and Patagonia, big walls, desert towers, and even a 20-day Winds traverse bagging 33 peaks along the Continental Divide.
Now, at 49, she may be stepping back from expeditions, but performance climbing goals are still alive, driven by the belief that her best day is yet to come. Join us as we explore the mindset of someone who’s redefined what’s possible and continues to push her limits.
