Obstacle course competition 5/18 and 5/20!

by Eric Jusino


On the weekend of May 18, 2012, we’ll be holding parkour obstacle course challenges for both adults and kids with basic parkour skills. For each age group, we’ll set up and run parkour challenges and two obstacle courses indoors at our gym. The courses will be designed to challenge your body and brain as you race against the clock!

Here’s the schedule:
5/18 - 6-9pm - Adults competition
5/20 - 5-8pm - Kids competition and community potluck

There’s a $25 entrance fee for all challenge participants except our Unlimited members.

Sign up online, and we’ll see you at the competition!

Summit Competition Video - 3rd place finisher Brian Orosco

by Tyson Cecka

Brian Orosco finished with the 3rd best overall time at the Summit Outdoor Invitational obstacle course competition this summer. Here's video of some of his runs

I'm really impressed with Brian's confidence in running long jumps - he was first to break the faster jump to the top of the silo in the beginning of the 1st course and he flies through the 3rd course even with the tricky footing. One of the few who took his time with the first runs through each course to establish them as well :)

Summit Competition Video - 4th place finisher Frosti Zernow

by Tyson Cecka

Frosti (Fresh) finished with the 4th best overall time (and took 1st in the 1st and 3rd individual courses)  at the Summit Outdoor Invitational obstacle course competition this summer. Here's video of some of his runs:

Frosti's sprinting speed was unmatched at this comp - easily taking 1st at the 1st and 3rd speed courses with his first attempt on both! (competitors get two attempts on each course) The climbing finale slowed him down for the final score but be sure to watch through as he blows away everyone on the 3rd course :)

Sasuke Challenge 2 Results and Media!

by Tyson Cecka

Our second obstacle course challenge saw 10 kid competitors and 15 or so adult competitors through three challenging obstacle courses for time. We managed to run the Adult competition much faster than last time and even had room for a crazy fourth bonus course thought up by Dane :)

Some really great control and dedication was shown by everyone attending: no injuries and very close times on a few courses! Big thank-you to everyone who joined us for the day - especially all of those who donated. You all make up the reasons we're able to continually improve the gym and offer such events!
