Subject: Re: sports
Hi Jim,
Great to hear you’re starting regular exercise. I do karate three times a week and enjoy it because it keeps me active and focused. On weekends I go for a jog or cycle with friends. At school we have a gym with a basketball court, a badminton hall, a track, and a small weights room. Some facilities are scarce, but we can book the gym after lessons and use the running track during breaks.
Becoming a professional sportsperson can be attractive for discipline, travel, and teamwork, but it demands huge commitment and risks injury. I prefer a balanced approach: sports for health and enjoyment, with training if opportunity arises.
Best regards, Alex
