Masuleh is approximately 60 km southwest of Rasht and 32 km west of Fuman. For the first time ever they hosted a Parkour sporting event. Running, leaping and climbing through the city isn’t just a test of strength and stamina – it’s also now an official sport. Parkour – a form of urban acrobatics, originating in France – is now officially recognized by sports councils across Britain. On a practical level, this means that it can be on national educational curricula, apply for lottery funding and access the benefits enjoyed by other major sports.
