Running, urban, acrobatics1, and tricks—do those words seem to go together? If so, you may be a free runner. Free runners have taken tricks that are usually performed with a prop2 (or at least a net) and moved them into their daily lives and into public view.
奔跑、城市、特技表演、雜耍，這些詞是否看起來有關連？如果有，你可能是個自由奔跑者。自由奔跑者將一般用道具（或至少用球網）表演的特技，帶進日常生活及一般人能觀賞的範圍之內。
Free running is a way of interacting with3 the urban landscape in an unusual way. Free runners use the city as a gym. Instead of following the typical paths or doing typical movements, free runners use urban obstacles4 as props for acrobatic tricks. Free running is related to the French idea of parkour, but parkour is about efficiency5, speed, and self-preservation6, while free running is more about fun.
自由奔跑是與城市景觀互動的奇特方式。自由奔跑者把城市當作健身房。他們不照一般道路行走或做典型的動作，而是把城市中的障礙物當道具來做特技。自由奔跑跟法國的「跑酷」概念有關，但跑酷比較重視效率、速度及自我保護，而自由奔跑則較偏具趣味性。
The free running environment contains high and low walls, stairs, ramps7, bars and fences, arches, and doorways. Therefore, most free running moves are designed to use these elements8. There are a variety of different vaults for getting over low walls. There are running techniques to help scale9 high walls and flips10 to get down off them. Dives, rolls, and twists help protect the body when landing. And, of course, there are tons of ways to make each move more difficult, more athletic11, and more pleasing to watch.
自由奔跑的環境包括高低牆、階梯、斜坡、欄杆及圍牆、拱門及出入口。因此，自由奔跑的動作多半都會利用這些元素。各種不同的跳躍動作能越過矮牆。各種跑步技巧使人可以攀過高牆，然後輕翻下牆。在落地時的下潛、翻滾及扭轉等動作可以用來保護身體。當然，還有許多方式能使動作變得更困難、更活躍也更悅目。
All of these stunts12 are the reason free running competitions are often held within larger stunt competitions. There are more and more competitions dedicated13 solely14 to free running, however. There are free running clubs in many urban areas, and free running fans are now active in many of the world's cities. If you see urban obstacles you can jump over, climb, or duck15 under, then there are probably free runners in your city, too.
