slaughter rec center
Slaughter Recreation Center, Edgemont Road, Charlottesville, VA, USA
I realized my typical Tuesday afternoons revolved around 3 activities with rocks and thought it would be fun to title it a rockathlon. So, to start we climb. Get to slaughter around when it opens, climb for about an hour. Next we’ll run up and around ohill. I know this isn’t strictly touching rock at all times but im counting ohill as one big rock. Probably run for like half an hour i like to get creative with it so i’m sure they’ll be opportunities to climb various trees or jump certain gaps. We’ll conclude our run at the top of ohill where a quartet of lifting stones (rocks) reside. I’ll go over the basics of stone lifting and some things we can do with them i.e lifting and carrying. We’ll head back down ohill around sunset and end at slaughter. For proper enjoyment of this trip id suggest some experience in climbing and running.
