Not running related but...

Has anyone watched “The Dawn Wall” on Netflix?! Wow. Finest documentary I have ever seen. It’s about an amazing free climb on El Capitan in Yosemite. An absolutely phenomenal story about the human spirit. As runners, you will also appreciate it. It really blew me away. Tommy Caldwell is my new hero and such a lovely human being. 💪

Highly recommended viewing. 😁

Happy running, buddies.

I do have Netflix, Sadie, my daughter gave it free to me as a "Friend, a package of 4" I'll look out for that.

[Sadie-runs Graduate10 in reply to AlMorr]

Do watch it - it is astounding!

[ChrisAllen1 Graduate10]

When we were in Yosemite there were little pin heads towards the top of El Cap....... turned out to be climbers clambering towards the top........amazing!

[Sadie-runs Graduate10 in reply to Millsie-J]

Oh I would love to visit Yosemite! It looked stunning in the documentary, Millsie. And you saw climbers? Brilliant. (I must say, climbing gives people amazing physiques!)

[Millsie-J in reply to Sadie-runs]

Yosemite is a truely beautiful place.😀

Ps my son and my daughter are climbers... but I would utterly go into Mum-mode if they said they were climbing El Cap 🤪🤪🤪

[Sadie-runs Graduate10 in reply to Millsie-J]

Understandable! 😱

I saw it too and agree with every word! I've recommended to my work colleagues and a few running mates. As you say, it's in the same spirit. I've also booked the whole family into the localv indoor climbing arena for a wee taster session, not that I'm a convert 😂

Mountain Dreamer has got to have tuned in also, she's our resident climber! Xx

[Sadie-runs Graduate10 in reply to Hidden]

Oh yes, I thought of MD when I watched this!

Exciting that you and the family are going to try climbing. I am pondering it myself. Great for all round body strength! xxx

Thanks for that Sadie-runs ...I’m going to download it for my flight xxx

[Sadie-runs Graduate10 in reply to Mummycav]

It is gripping, you will love it Bev. 😁 Have a fantastic holiday my lovely runny friend! xxx

Yes it is a brilliant doc. If you liked this you’ll probably really also like “Free Solo” if you’ve not seen it already.

[Sadie-runs Graduate10 in reply to Decker]

Bit scared to watch that one Decker - no ropes! 😱

[Decker in reply to Sadie-runs]

But you know he’s ok at the end, so you can have that assurance 😊. There is one other Netflix climbing film called “Valley Uprising” which chronicles the 50 year rock climbing history in Yosemite. Its on my watch list.

[Sadie-runs Graduate10 in reply to Decker]

Oh I’ll be sure to add that to my watch list, too. Cheers Decker!
