Alex Posted February 6, 2004 Posted February 6, 2004 sounds great glassgowkiss. Can you post details on how to get to Footworx?
sk Posted February 6, 2004 Posted February 6, 2004 Thank you for posting this here I will see what I can do about atending the workshop at the end of march. Please keep us posted on a PDX workshop

glassgowkiss Posted February 6, 2004 Author Posted February 6, 2004 don't know about pdx, since nobody even bothered to return my phone call. if someone wants to organize this- it would be fine with me. it is a 5 hour drive for me, so it's kind of hard to wing it.
glassgowkiss Posted February 13, 2004 Author Posted February 13, 2004 after last night i am convinced 99% people in the PNW want to only eat, get fat and complain. there were only 2 people at footworx last night. in the meantime bob's burger and brew was packed, of course there was a flyer in the window informing about a free clinic. imo people in the pnw are stupid, fat, not interested in doing anything. maybe that's the reason it's so hard to find decent climbing partners too.
glassgowkiss Posted February 13, 2004 Author Posted February 13, 2004 maybe, but the service sucks. last time we were waiting 45 minutes to get beer! i am never going back there again. besides- it's not the point. the point is that everybody is complaining about this injury and every other tweak. in the meantime i spent like 10 hours preping for this thing, about $30 in copies and only 2 people showed up. i guess life is so boring around here, that talking and bitching about injuries keeps people occupied.
rbw1966 Posted February 20, 2004 Posted February 20, 2004 I bet we could round up a decent amount of people for a clinic in Portland.
sk Posted February 20, 2004 Posted February 20, 2004 I bet we could round up a decent amount of people for a clinic in Portland. I might be able to do that depending on cost, date etc... that would be better for me than the monday night in ballard.
burgersling Posted February 20, 2004 Posted February 20, 2004 I have to think that part of the problem with interest in this clinic is that it could be seen as a massage therapist and a chiropractor looking for new clients. People who don't believe in or understand these practices may worry they are going to have them rammed down their throat and just not bother.
glassgowkiss Posted March 18, 2004 Author Posted March 18, 2004 just a reminder about march 29. i guess only 4 people signed up so far. since i live in b-ham i don't think i'll be trying to drum up new patients, so don't worry. what i'll be talking about is soft tissue climbing related injuries, how to prevent them and what to do if you get injured. so show up or don't go on-line later on complaining about your tweaks.
