FITNESS

Exercising the Body & Mind

As a child, I wasn't particularly athletic. But as an adult, I discovered that there were physical endeavors that were fun and helped me to stay active and healthy. First, it was working out at the gym. Then, I discovered running and started the Coppell Running Club. In 2024, I completed my first half marathon in Fort Worth.

 

Most recently, I took up martial arts, including Brazilian jiujitsu, MMA and muay thai kickboxing. It was something completely new and foreign. I had no experience whatsoever and had to learn everything from scratch. In the beginning, I was afraid of getting hurt, but I learned to work through that fear. What I have discovered through running and martial arts is that much of what holds us back is mental. All of the "I can'ts" live in our heads. And it is absolutely amazing when you can accomplish your milestones.

​

I competed in my first jiujitsu tournament in December 2024, followed by my second tournament on February 1, 2025. Below are videos from events.
