Stiff Shifter??

Hi All,
I recently became the proud owner of a 98 Box with manual transmission, 35k miles. Love it, but I feel like shifting is stiffer than it should be. Its hard to describe but it feels notchy. What I mean is when I shift, its kind of a 2-push process. One push to get out of the current gear, then it gets a little hung up in the middle and requires a firmer push into gear. Of course this is all with the clutch fully depressed.

I'm wondering if that is just the way it is, or whether something can be lubed, or checked. Do I look at it from underneath the car or take the boot off to examime all the linkages? I feel like it should be smoother.
