Had a BUSY bee couple of weeks, went down to devon for a week to do a first aid course for a few days, learnt some things about attending to casualties that I believe will come in handy.

Then went to the peak district for 4 days, for the traceur gathering. After the first couple of days I was really feeling it in my quads, having not trained much impact for a while. Shortly after I jarred both my ankles, so i made a wise decision not to push it further. Was a great trip, socially perhaps more than the gorgeous place to train, its not often you have that many traceurs together socialising and training. I could write a huge write up on it, but then...those of you who went know and those of you that didnt..must be filled with regret :P. Oh and just to add....guys have no sense of direction, or just dont care about walking through bogs rather than round. :P

Just come back from parkour workshops today...damnn. Tired. But although hard work was a lot of fun, over 4 days of teaching the overall atmosphere was great and the kids were really responsive. I just hope they listen to being taught about balance, landings and touch cause they really needed to work on those areas. Some really nice kids in there though, with lots of potential.

Ive been working on my muscle ups still, and im so close to double arms it hurts!! Although ive done them occasionally when im really energetic its bugging me that they are taking soooooooo loooonnnggggg. But then again, it took ages for my climbups to change, then one day they just clicked, so hopefully it will just fall into place with hard work. I learnt to cat pass rail precision! Though not a great progression in strength or anything relevant to it, ive been scared of going for them, learnt it from bike rail to bike rail...was quite substantial so made me happy. So trainings = good, lot of running about and conditioning these last few days, so im feeling very good and up for anything.

Soul survivor next week, cant wait to meet people and just talk, I dont currently have faith in anything but i guess if i dont look its not just going to float to me.

Thats it for now.
