11-26-07: Boldfacers: "Glenn Black" Glyph is featured as a traceur on boldfacers.com, a site that profiles Boston people of interest.


5-20-07: The Eagle Tribune: "Climbing Over Obstacles"  Robear and kaos were interviewed for another article in the Tribune...more details to come.


2-11-07: Daily Collegian: "For Traceurs, the World is their Playground"  Our very own HaiWolfe (Jackie Hai) has joined the ranks of the few elite reporters who have done parkour justice.  Congratulations Jackie on an amazing article.


1-8-07: Eagle Tribune: "Channel Your Inner 007" New England Parkour is featured in the last section of the article "Fresh Fitness."  The article gives many alternatives to your typical workout and does a good job portraying parkour and our community positively.


11-17-06: NPR - Here and Now: "Parkour: Can You Defy Gravity?" Producer Kevin Donovan of the NPR show Here and Now put together a great piece featuring kaos and quetzalcoatl that aired nationally. You can listen to an mp3 version of the piece here.


10-18-06: The Weekly Dig: "I'm Going to go There; I'm Going to go There Directly; I'm Going to go There Quickly; and Nothing Will Stop Me."  This article focuses on kaos during a Sunday training session and Jam.  Although it does Parkour justice, Freerunning gets a bit of a diss*.


10-4-06: The Northeastern News: "Parkour: The Road Less Traveled."  Northeastern University ran a story that included several of our members.  The piece is good overall, but does not help our chances of training at NEU.


9-20-06: Channel 5 Boston: "Chronicle."  Channel 5's TV magazine Chronicle included a short segment on Parkour.  It turned out very well, and the people at Channel 5 reported it just the way we said it.  Quetzlcaotl, Kaos, Loki, Robear, and Jon were in attendance.  You can watch our segment here.


9-1-06: Pulse Magazine article: "Getting from Here to There Has Never Been so Graceful." This article features kaos with pictures of eekro and ductmonkey.  Congrats to those two!  There is some misinformation in this piece.  To see kaos' corrections look here.
   

8-10-06: Cheshire Herald article: "Olive Escapes into World of Parkour."  Members Evilo and Kohan took the initiative to get some press in their local paper.  The article features quotes from the two and shows a good basic understanding of Parkour.
 

5-28-06: Hartford Courant article: "The Amazing Race."  This article features kaos, evilo and others from nepk, along with M2 of americanparkour.com, and the founder of parkour David Belle.


4-23-06: Boston Globe article "For 'parkour' acrobats, the challenges are everywhere"
This article features our own Devin Platts (texahol) and Eric Moore (quetzalcoatl) in nepk's first official media appearance.


7-8-05: Boston Phoenix article "The Flow of Freerunning"
This article features Chris Levesque (kaos) giving insight into why he does parkour.  This article was also featured in the Portland Phoenix.
