Trinity Trails

Being a former personal trainer, my wife constantly challenges me to maintain a healthy lifestyle. Along with eating right, we make sure to run 3 or 4 miles each afternoon during the week, while trying to incorporate some bike riding on Saturday's. Fort Worth has a huge bike trail that winds along the Trinity River and takes you all through the city from downtown to the suburbs. Park benches and ducks surround the well-kempt trail. It's convenient and beautiful.

This morning, Jess and I took our bikes out to the Trinity Trails and rode for about an hour. A marathon was taking place so we got to encourage some of the runners while we rode and talked and just soaked in the beauty of God's creation. It was a pleasant ride and a needed break from our normal indoor workouts.

The map below shows the trails throughout the city, while the orange arrows bookend our path from this morning. Round trip, I think it was a little longer than 9 miles. Not sure though.

1-1

What is probably the best team in the league, beat us last night, despite Jess' 3 point shot and our first half lead. We played em' pretty tightly though. Now, at 1-1, we look ahead to next week's game. The worst part of our loss was how dissapointed our owner was after the game:

1-0

We won our first Intramural Basketball game last Thursday night by one point.

It was alot of fun to get out there and run around and just play some ball with our friends. Jess had double digit steals and a couple of baskets. Hopefully we'll be able to extend our winning streak to two games this week.

Intramural Basketball

Willie, Jess, our church's worship leader, Jarryd, and myself are playing in the intramural basketball league at the Seminary starting this week. The draft for the rest of our team is tonight and our first game will take place on Thursday. I'll post a schedule once I have it, as well as a weekly update to let you know whether or not we're winning. Hopefully, Jess will carry us to the playoffs!
