What: Gauntlet Nights When: Every Thursday at 4 PM Where: Meet at the CU Engineering Center courtyard directly adjacent to Regent Drive. As an effort to increase the fitness of myself and the rest of the local parkour community, I want to start weekly Gauntlet nights at CU Boulder. For those of you who don't know what a Gauntlet is, read here: http://www.americanparkour.com/content/view/1130/2/. The parkour community as a whole is greatly unprepared from a physical fitness standpoint, and we all need to get out and work harder to become strong enough to endure the stresses that parkour puts on our bodies. I strongly encourage everyone to attend these Gauntlets if they can. Or start up your own Gauntlet night in your area. I hope that people will join me in these greatly beneficial workouts. |

The first Gauntlet was good. Carolynn, Andy, and myself all showed which means everyone else in Boulder who didn't show is a slacker.  I had no energy and slacked a little but I am still pretty sore. Carolynn did well for trying all that stuff for the first time. Andy pretty much owned me in everything. We didn't do the full Gauntlet...about 75% of it. But that's ok, its supposed to get gradually harder anyway. Those of you who didn't show, I hope to see you out there next week. |

It is still on but I also wont be there tonight. I am forcing myself to take another day off to heal up a little bit. I think Andy and Jim will probably be there though.
