Today my friend Adam and I set up a course to run. Of the things included were kongs, wall runs, cat leaps, quadrapedal movements, tacs and speed vaults. We walked through it once and went over a few things (my kongs are getting much better and am getting closer to clearing a picnic table lengthwise, where as Adam can now do that).
The first "official" time we ran it, we didn't time, but the second time it took us 8 minutes and it was exhausting. I actually thought I would throw up (but didn't). I'm glad we have been able to find a place where we can not only practice individual movements but find a way to set up a course so we can incorporate some actually running into it, to help build our endurance.
Tomorrow we will be going somewhere else just to work on some fundamentals. I don't remember how I found out about Parkour, but I'm very glad I did. It's complete freedom for me.
