it just takes some

really happy with my run yesterday. went for about 1/2 hour of a trail/road run and felt great.

let my body set the pace and then pushed it a little bit harder. was gorgeous out and the the surrounding hills, fields, and green was awesome.

saw a beaver about 20 feet in front of my, crossing the path and also saw two rabbits.

knee felt really good and am very happy about that.

going to do some on-field stuff with cleats today.

you're a big surprise

threw around a little bit yesterday, did a warmup and then an active.

went into the gym. did an upper body warmup.

bench; 1x8 @ 45, 1x6 @ 95, 1x3 @ 115, 2x5 @ 135, 2x5 @ 145, 1x4 @ 155, 1x1 @ 155
pullups; 25 (10,8,7)
chinups; 25 (8,8,9)
dips; 4x10
hanging leg raises; 4x12
man tacos; 4x20
db incline; 3x8 @ 55
one armed row on bench; 1x8 @ 50, 2x8 @ 55
side raise w/45 lb plate; 3x10

stretched and rolled later. actually felt alright. going to go for a trail type run today, not too hard, but hope to loosen up the legs and get the blood flowing.

as for this past weekend. whew. i was extremely frustrated at the start of saturday. i warmed up and had felt ok, but was hoping that my legs would respond a little bit better. but, they didn't. sluggish and with no pop. i started honestly thinking to myself that maybe i was done playing and needed to quit. i think a lot of these feelings are tied to my knee not feeling very good. during the offseason, i worked hard to prevent any injuries and getting myself into shape for the season and as soon as i had the opportunity to play, i got injured. as the next game went on, i started to feel better, but still not great. by our third game, i had finally found a bit of a stride and some strength and felt more confident. but by this time, extreme fatigue had started to set in, as well as dehydration. (we had slept on a concrete patio at the fields the night before, through a wickedly serious thunderstorm and rain.) excuse, but a fact nonetheless.
sunday morning came and i felt better than i thought i would. the knee was sore, but holding up. really started to find some rhythm in this game and was able to play a lot of points.

as our quarters game wrapped up and we had a quick break, my body started to tighten up pretty bad. not sure what happened, could have been dehydration and possibly more fatigue, but once i was able to loosen back up, was pretty happy on a personal level with my cutting and decisions in this game. not happy with execution as a team and very excited to get out on the practice field and iron that stuff out.

pretty solid wake-up call to the necessity of drinking more and eating more salt. after both saturday and sunday play, i was nauseous and woozy. be better about that.

caz this past weekend. took me a looooong time to get loose and find some sort of rhythm. partly due to taking two weeks off for my knee, partly because this is the first real ultimate i have played since nationals. will elaborate a bit on this tomorrow.
