Life Changing Experience in Buxton
Two days ago in Buxton, Go Ape was a life changing experience for me. I'm 70 and while I'm healthy and fit enough to walk the dog five miles a day, I have been sinking into a rut in recent years.
Suddenly I saw that I was thinking, feeling and acting like an old man and decided to look for an adventure that would be unlikely to kill me but had a small element of risk and a would give me a big charge of adrenaline. Go Ape did both. I completed the course, which I found as exhausting as a half-marathon did when I was 45, and two days later I'm still experiencing a massive 'runner's high'. I feel invigorated and young again.
The friendly and encouraging staff (especially Hattie) were a great help. The safety kit is robust and easy to use. The value for money in my case was extraordinary as I'd have been happy to pay ten times the cost for this therapeutic effect.
I wanted to write a balanced review but I can't actually think of anything negative - even the sun came out in Buxton for me.
