No Training Today!

No training tonight.  I had my usual squat workout planned but I had to miss it.  I got a nasty blister on my foot from Sunday's soccer game and it is now a bit infected and actually sore to put my full weight on my heel as the surrounding area is inflamed and tender.  If it's better tomorrow I'll do my squat workout tomorrow.

Speaking of Sunday's game -- we lost 2-1.  It was a very challenging game!  The team we played we top of the table in our division.  It was 1-1 until the last 10 minutes where they scored a goal and we were unable to catch up.  Unfortunately the game was marred by the bad attitude of the opposing teams players AND their supporters.  I'm not surprised they were like that as if their supporters have poor attitudes then badness just breeds.  One fellow in particular was calling us cheats (hello! they won!) and other choice names.  Not only that he was nasty to his own team if we had the advantage!  What a prick!  The linesman asked him to step back as he was in the way of him doing his job and the guy had the audacity to tell him he could stand where he liked and for the linesman to get stuffed.  There are some quality people out there that's for sure.  To top it off the referee was like tits on a bull.  He looked like he was about 18 years old and because the other team was full of young girls he spent a lot of his time flirting with the other team.  My team mate who isn't afraid to speak her mind actually told him off and told him to stop flirting with the girls and to concentrate on our game. The idiot also decided to ignore the linesman and let an offside goal count.  Very frustrating for us!

The good thing about the game that was it was nice to run around, the goal we did score was a cracker (a pass from the side and a header into the goal) and the beer afterwards.

Blisters, stress fractures, ruptured achilles tendons or anterior cruciate ligaments, these are all injuries people I train have had when they were NOT IN THE GYM LIFTING HEAVY SHIT.

The moral of the story is... :D

Life is boring if you only eat bread :-P

At this stage I am enjoying soccer a lot more than being in the gym!
