Le Parkour

"Le parkour" or free running too, is an extreme sport that is practised in the street. In Argentona many boys do it this.
A friend and I have been practicing this sport for 4 months but when a boy died in Mataro, we stopped doing it. I liked this sport beacause you can do a lot of spectacular acrobatic jumps and you hang out with your friends and an even more important thing is you get exercise. But for the people this sport is no good.
For me and the boys that paractise this sport, I think that the best sport person who does free running is David Bell. He lives in Lises (Paris).
Every weekend my friends and I go to see what type of jumps the boys do and what is the best!

Very good writing Juli !! I understood everything. I think Parkour is a great sport because it just envolves using your body and everyday objects that are all around us in the urb...the interaction is interesting and exciting. I didn't know about the boy in Mataro...but every weekend people die skiing ...and driving cars and that doesn't stop them.
