I am captivated by freerunning and Parkour.

So, I'm not in my first flush of youth (by any stretch of the imagination) a bit overweight, unfit. Female! So what?


Plus side -

1. I've been excercising/walking for years
2. The sheer energy I see in the videos is a huge motivator
3. I don't give up


Minus -

1. Marial arts training - Tang Soo Doo/ballet/tai chi caused severe knee problems
2. A recent run reminded me of the reasons I gave up the above hobbies.

Ok, so I can walk fast instead. No need to give up at the first hurdle.
