The city as a climbing wall

The city as a climbing wall

A workshop that turns bridges, stairs and loading docks into a training ground — with the coaches who designed it.

Urban movement training is less about strength than about reading a space. The first hour of the workshop is spent walking, not moving fast.

Participants leave with a route through their own neighbourhood, mapped and graded by difficulty.

No previous experience is required, and the session runs twice on Thursday of the festival week.

    Did the 21K last year and this read brought the whole thing back. That last kilometre under the yellow arch is unreal.

    Anyone else pairing the morning social run with the afternoon recovery circuit? Best combo of the week, my legs said thank you.

    The sprint lab data was the highlight for me. Walked out with my own gait model and instantly changed how I warm up.

    New to SPORTIFY this year — is the Friday night set beginner friendly or should I start with the rooftop sundown?
