for those who arent familiar with this sport, heres an article that explains it le parkour. its an art form in which you use the forward movement of your body to flow through obstacles from point A to point B continuously without moving backwards. i find it a great alternative to traditional running because it is challenging and more interactive. running isnt about intervals or marathons, and i think a lot of people dont like to run because of that idea that its a chore. running should be about having fun, and free running takes the fun of hopping the fence or running on a curb when you were a kid to the next level.
