Friday's Training in the Peak District
Yesterday I joined the group at Padley Gorge, we did some training on the rocks along the stream. It was fantastic, I was so impressed at what that part of the Peak District had to offer in that respect.It was nice to meet those I know from Northern Parkour, but have never actually met; leeroybrownjr (Lee) and Psi (Simon). They were both very pleasant and I noticed that after introducing ourselves to eachother, in both cases, we were immediately able to interact in a way that you would expect we train with eachother all the time, it was just that we were both able to train and discuss techniques etc as if we knew eachother well and trained regularly together, but I literally just knew their names, nothing more, and we were able to share the love for parkour straight off. A bit long-winded, but you know what I'm trying to say.
Looking forward to today's jam in Sheffield. I set off in about 10 minutes. Should be good training with Dave and Paul there again, as well as Jin, Jason, Liv and the others.
Sam Corbett from Leek Parkour is coming to stay over as I offered to accommodate him for the night so that it was possible for him to come to join the action. He's getting the train with me to Manchester tomorrow too.
