Dallas and the surrounding areas have SOO much to offer fitness wise to ever get bored or stuck in a religious routine. So I bring you Workout Wednesday!!!!!! Whether you are looking for something different and challenging or looking for a great workout to do with some friends or as a date night then I’d have to say you came to the right place! Today I am talking about the beautiful gem hidden in the Village Apartments called the Fit Trail. You’ll not only get a GREAT workout but you’ll get to see some friends squirrels, giant snapping turtles (in the water safe distance away), and some awesome ducks!
Plug into your GPS the Village Country Club located at 8308 Southwestern Blvd Dallas, TX 75206. There will be a large parking lot next to it which a few empty fields and a volleyball pit. PARK! You will walk away from the country club on the side track path that will get you right to the first station on the Fit Trail! YAY!
The first few stations are for stretching, so follow the pictures and THE MOST IMPORTANT PART………..is HAVE FUN with it! This trail can be a fitness challenge or just a fun way to hangout with someone in an active environment. (I’ve got a little awesome surprise for you out there who are planning this as a fitness date so stayed tuned!)
Depending on your goal and abilities you can jog, walk or sprint to each station. We jogged because let’s be real……Summer is here….and it is freaking HOT! Good news is that most of the trail is covered in shade from the trees, but I’m still a pansy when it comes to the heat.
View the Gallery for reference on the stations or if you just want to laugh 😉
After each station keep jogging/walking around the loop until you’ve completed the goal you had in mind! The stations are only on one side of the loops so you can really focus on the cardio aspect during the other half of the loop.
Okay…..Here is the date night scoop! If you are with that special someone and want to be super cheesy like my Husband and I do, then there is a perfect spot for just that! Haha. There is a bridge that goes over the water with a cute little sign on the ground that says “Kiss Me Here” awwww. Go ahead and admit it’s super cheesy, but no shame here!
You are all set for another Dallas fitness adventure! Do your own workout or follow the suggestions below and let me know what you think! Also, tag me in pictures after you completed the Fit Trail. #TrilogyFitnessTX Can’t wait to see all my sweaty followers knock this one out of the park!
