Leave No Trace - Updated with Pics PDF Print E-mail
Saturday, 26 April 2008
 

Parkour practitioners (traceurs) and Freerunners hold certain ideals, among them the most important are safe practice and respect for our environments we train in. To highlight this, we are banding together across the country today to clean up areas where we train. In Washington, DC a group will leave Primal Fitness at 12:00 after a parkour training session and head for Rock Creek Park where we'll aim to fill at least 30 bags of trash. Please check your state forums to see if there is an initiative near you and join in, if there isn't a post in the forums, call your friends, go out, and clean up your favorite training spots!

So awesome! 
 
At yesterday's training session in Madison, we had about 5 people. We simply picked up trash wherever we went. I'm thinking this will be part of our regular practice. Training includes picking up trash, and that's just how we roll in Mad-town. :)

Haha nobody was around to participate...but i spent 4 hours cleanin up 3 of my most used training spots. It's surprising when you actually take a look around and see how badly some places are treated =/ but i incorporated a lot of QM movement in...it was fun!

Not quite sure what I was going for here, but I think it kind of works. Background is a photo I took while in Chicago, everything else is scrap!

Also, wallpapers will now be in widescreen 1920 x 1080 resolution! Enjoy!
