End of the Season

My flag football season ended last night with...what else, a loss. We finished completely winless...woohoo!! :-) Actually, as nice as it would have been to win a game, I had a blast just playing. Last night's game was against a team consisting of a lot of my team's friends, but it ended up being a little rough. The QB on the opposing team bit clear through his lip, my friend Kelly (also on other team) twisted her ankle pretty badly, a guy on my team hurt his knee, and another aggravated a muscle injury he received a few days before in a competitive league team. Now it's all over. I guess it's time to gear up for volleyball!

So I started a new workout routine - running. Gasp! Yes, I said I'm starting to run. And not just on the treadmill, but outside also!!! At my boss's Halloween party last weekend, there was a female marine there who was in really, really good shape, very toned and thin. I asked our mutual friend how she maintains herself, and he said she runs and runs and runs. So now I've started running on a trail by my house, and whenever I feel like quitting, I just think of how I want to be like her. Ok, so I know that I can't get all of her...um...assets by running, but I know it's the best way to get in shape and lose the rest of my weight. And now that I've started doing it, it's actually kind of fun! I'm dreading when the weather finally turns cold and I have to use a treadmill because I absolutely love running outside. Now I guess I should spend the money on good running shoes.

Well, I have to work a late shift tonight, so I guess I better go get ready. Yay, overtime!
