I’m So Tired

Yesterday I played soccer socially with some friends from church and a few others. It was the first time we played, and hopefully it will be a weekly event. I learnt two things from last night…

1- I am terribly unfit. Make no mistake, I knew I was unfit, but not that bad. After the first 15 minutes of the game I was totally gone. Then after a couple of drinks and a few deep breaths I was kinda fine. For the entire second half of the game I wasn’t tired at all. Anyway hopefully I can build the fitness over the next few weeks.

2- I suck at soccer. Playing soccer against 5-10 year olds in the hall at the church’s kids club definitely does not serves as a gauge at how good a soccer player you are. My form last night was best say….rusty. I wasn’t terrible but just pretty bad.

My soccer boots are also too small so my toes got quite sore. Maybe I should buy new boots, I love buying things I wont use heaps. Also I woke this morning with a really sore shoulder, interesting injury playing soccer. Maybe I need the ‘UltraSling 2.’
