Just saw people running up and down the sidewalk with 25lb bumpers in the business park. The skinny dude at the end of the pack looked like he was going to vomit. Is this a cross fit thing?
I is confuzled.

It had group exercise, bumper plates, and vomiting. So yes, probably crossfit.
Heh. You kids are too young to remember fartleks and parcourse fitness trails. Rookies. Stick around a few more decades. You'll see all kinds of stupid shit emerge or get rediscovered.
I meant besides Crossfit. Unless I'm being super special today and missed something completely obvious.
Also, there was a European soccer player looking dude (Kinda reminded me of Ronaldo) doing squats the same time I was today. Quarter squats. With 95 pounds. Actively trying to point his toes farther inward than straight ahead. For sets of 25. Lots of sets. Of course he left the weight on the bar when he was done. He's also a trainer at the gym. On the bright side, at least he didn't use the pussy pad.
There is a girl at my gym who squats 190-ish (only 1-2" high). Young, average-sized girl. Kind of cute, too. I love it when she shows up as there is a guy like the one you describe working out in the next rack. These guys disappear pretty quick. I always know the other racks will be open when she is around.
A parcourse fitness trail doesn't sound that bad compared to what we find in parks nowadays. There is only one park in my entire city with a pull up bar. The rest are entirely equipped for children. And the children's shit is a bunch of excessively safe crap approved by the over protective parents who bitched that the music at the neighborhood music festival was too loud.
There's a 1.75 mile jogging path here that ends in a large park. You won't find anything but benches on the path. And the park only has a swing or two and some dumbass public hummingbird art sculpture. I'd love it if this were a fitness trail. I'd go use the pull up bar. . . . As it is, some fat dude has to do his 1/4 rep tricep extensions on a bench. And the new-mothers zoomba troop doesn't have anything but strollers to use for their kick backs and body weight squats.
This would be great:
Fit-Trail: 20 Station Fitness Trail Equipment
This is one area where ohio shines. We have thousands of miles of non paved trails going through, and looping around the entire state. Fantastic hiking and traill running all through beautiful woods as well as bridle trails for riding horses. Buckeye Trail Association
We also have one of the best park systems around (Cleveland Metroparks) and nearly every one of the parks around here has the thing you linked to with the different stations spaced out along the trail. There is also the cuyahoga valley national park right here too (a lot of the buckeye trail goes through this national park.)
