Realization, also called Biographie, is a circa 35-metre (115 ft) sport climbing route on an overhanging limestone cliff on the southern face of Céüse mountain, near Gap and Sigoyer, in France.

[5][6] In 1989, French climber Jean-Christophe Lafaille bolted the entire circa 35 metre pitch, and named it Biographie (he was not able to climb it).

[7] Biographie remained a long-standing open project, and in 1996, French climber Arnaud Petit [fr] freed the lower half of the route, added an anchor at his high-point and graded it at 8c+ (5.14c).

[7] Sharma would later clarify:[7][12] I named the route Realization because the first part "Biographie" ended in the middle and I wanted to differentiate the two.

So upon speaking with some French friends, I understood the history of the line and the tradition in France that the bolter names it, and I told them "that's fine with me to call it Biographie".

I guess the whole thing was a bit confusing due to the middle anchor and not wanting to discredit the first pitch or have the name be exactly the same as the first part.

After this pause, a series of "super-resistant two and three-finger pocket moves", with cross-throughs, underclings, and high-steps lead to Arnaud Petit's old anchor (now since removed),[6] which is almost halfway.

[13] The quality and sustained difficulty of Realization means it is still considered an important rite-of-passage for the world's best rock climbers, whose repeat ascents of the "legendary" route, are covered by the climbing media.

Add to that, the historic significance of this climb, not to mention its unique and brilliant holds and movement — it really is a proud route".
