Soccer!

As the weather is starting to warm up, it's now time to start getting ready for the oncoming soccer season! The two months or so of the season are some of the highlights of my year. I always have so much fun playing and I have a great team to play with, which always helps with the enjoyment factor. The season starts at the end of March, so I have until then to whip myself into some awesome shape!

Being a senior, I want this to be my best year and hopefully get into the best shape I can get into. This means RUNNING! And lots of it, too. I'm also going to be working on leg strengthening (and arms, but I have a lot of that already hehe). There are many advantages of condition prior to the sport you're playing. One is that you will be ready for the game and not get worn out as easily and as quickly. Another reason is to prohibit injuries. My team seems to be prone to getting hurt, so I would like to prevent that as much as possible.

I can't thank God enough for giving some awesome girls to play soccer with! This team has really made up for not playing hockey on a team anymore. I pray that God will make this an extra special year for myself and the rest of the seniors. I know I'm going to miss playing very much, and I'm also going to miss my team.

Showing hope -
