I think learning about free running was quite interesting from Caleb because it really got me out of my comfort zone and also I enjoyed it. And also doing the pros basketball Cross overs was challenging but I enjoyed it. It got the best out of me because I practised a lot and this is what I think Rangatiratanga is all about.
