Today Lori and I explored some new trail very close to our house that just opened up.  It's in the Discovery Wells Preserve and access is available through a new gate that has been installed in the back corner of Rachel Ridge park at the corner of Rachel Ridge and Del Roy in Cedar Park.  I was running and Lori was on the mountain bike.  Some of the trail was old jeep trail and some of it was rocky single track, which Lori got tired of after a while.  This new section of trail ties into the trails in the Westside Preserve and it's great to have this trail close to the house.

Nice switch from Decatur to have a trail you can run to from the house. Hope everything is going well. Certainly looks like you are putting in some good miles. You and Lori planning on a race sometime? When is the big 1/2 marathon?
