I came across this site on k10k. I realize I am being a bit of a copy cat here but everyone should check it out (the house gymnastics site). What really made me interested in it is the fact that I remember as a kid doing stuff like playing on a banister or climbing things in the house. Of course my parents would not be happy with that kind of things so it never really developed into something. It is so fascinating to see things like this actually taken pretty seriously. I think it is very impressive even though it may be a little on the silly side. It makes you wonder why you stop playing like this when you get older. I remember when I first saw extreme walking and I thought to myself how I used to do that kind of thing as a kid on the field trips to Big Trees. I would jump of the "big trees" and act like I was doing skateboard moves like any other kid at the time. Little did I know someone would have the passion for the activity to really push it forward as a pastime.

I don't really know where I am going with this but I think it is to make a comment on how people change when they get older. I know I am getting old which doesn't really bother me too much. At the same time, when I see something interesting like this that makes me want to hurt myself on the staircase, I start to think that I really do miss some things in my youth. I guess it is all relative. I have been feeling a little on the chunky side of the weight spectrum and knowing that I am very unhealthy so that probably has more to do with my reminiscing but in any case maybe I will give it a go in the hall way later tonight. Wish me luck.
