For over a year I played soccer with some friends every Tuesday night, but when I started training for the marathon I quit going, and then after the race my knee was so jacked up that there was no way  could play. I went last night for the first time in several months, and I learned a few things. First, I am in terrible shape right now or at the very least terrible soccer shape. I was winded so quickly. We play 4 on 4 in a Stake Center in Murray, and it is up and down and very fast. There is a lot of sprinting, and I could tell I hadn't played in a while. It was so fun to be back, and I am definitely going to start playing every week again.

I also learned I am not very good.

Looks like it will be an 800 mg of Ibuprofen for breakfast day.

Dude, you were never very good at soccer. hahaha. Just kidding. I miss the days when we played city league together. Once Em is out of school maybe we can put another team together.

It’s my weakest sport for sure… well, next to bouldering..ha. You should come play with us on Tuesdays. It is more fun than playing city league. It is a great group, and they are all superior to me. Most have been playing together for 20+ years.

Leslie, Hope you're having a good week. That breakfast ade me as good as new. :)

Soccer!!! That's SO FUN!!! It's a safer (er, runner friendlier) sport than basketball. You're too humble to say you're not good. WAY to get out there and "sprint" on a cold night!

Indoor soccer is perhaps the most brutal sport out there!

From Scott Wesemann on Thu, Dec 10, 2009 at 00:44:50 from 75.162.72.176

I have played in indoor leagues, and they are definitely brutal, but this is just a pick up game with friends, so it doesn't get too rough most of the time.

From Kelli on Thu, Dec 10, 2009 at 18:40:41 from 71.219.71.229

I dunno, you did say that you were playing in a church, and any kind of "ball" played in a church is brutal.

From Scott Wesemann on Fri, Dec 11, 2009 at 12:42:51 from 66.239.250.209

Kelli- Haha. My Stake asked me to be a ref this year for church basketball and I declined. I didn't think it was an inspired calling :) I still have a scar on my arm from Stake basketball last year.

My husband has been kicked out of every stake we have lived in. He has even been kicked out of our daughter's church game! But, he has mellowed and last year he reffed the girls games. He gave my daughter a technical, it was hilarious!

HAHA. Too funny. She will never let him live that one down.
