Richmond Outside is my new source for all things outdoorsy. I consider it exercising if I read about others being active. In that vein as I sit in front of a computer it’s nice to read about Kevin and his ascent of the Manchester Climbing Wall. [Full Article]

Two years earlier I was working in one of the BB&T buildings complete with a cubicle and keycard. Back then, looking down from the 17th floor, I had no idea that the Manchester Wall existed.
