Time flies and, when Dan Edwardes and I came together to record this update on the progress I have been making towards my 1000 day knife throwing challenge, I had just passed the 333 day mark!

Well folks, this is the last recording of 2015 and I have taken the opportunity to reflect on my journey in throwing so far while also looking forward to what 2016 may bring.

Dan Edwardes is a founding member and Executive Director of 'Parkour Generations', the world's leading professional organisation for the dynamic movement discipline of parkour, sometimes known as freerunning. His training began in Japan, where he was living having completed a degree in Japanese and History at Cambridge University and while in pursuit of a lifelong study of fighting arts and functional movement disciplines. Since then he has trained with many of the founders of his chosen form of movement expression and has been instrumental in putting parkour on the map internationally. Dan has appeared in numerous high-profile media projects as a performer and choreographer for movies, TV commercials, live shows and public displays. He has also produced a considerable body of literature on parkour which has been translated into several languages and published across various media, including three books and the entry for parkour in the latest Sports Encyclopaedia, and regularly gives presentations and seminars on parkour around the world. However, in this interview Dan has generously placed the focus upon the 'Thronin Project' and the nature of the challenge that lays ahead of me; this is perhaps appropriate given that he is, arguably, and at least in part, responsible for me taking up this 1000 day challenge! I have been privileged to know Dan for almost three decades and count him among my closest friends. He is a deep thinker, a man of steel in training and never one to shy from walking the hard path and so I knew he would have some great insights into the throwing arts and how to train as efficiently as possible to achieve quick and lasting results. This interview lasts 47 minutes; whether you are a thrower, a traceur or just someone interested in ways in which you can realise your physical and mental potential, listening to this show will prove a wise investment of your time!

As superhuman as skilled parkour practitioners appear, Dan Edwardes reveals a very different view of the sport he helped popularize. Through running, jumping, crawling and climbing it brings us back to our roots, the functional ways that humans were meant to move, quite apart from the desk jockeying and couch denting now common. According to Edwardes, Parkour is a metaphor for life: one person's obstacle is another's stepping stone. As he proves, this amazing sport has the ability to completely flip flop your frame of reference. www.SpartanUpPodcast.com/034Lessons:1.
