Fortunately for me, when I'm home in St. Louis I am able to continue my weekly routine of soccer on Monday nights because one of my best friends has a team in a women's league here. Unfortunately for her, the team they were playing against didn't have enough players to start the game. Since I was a guest player anyway, I volunteered to play on the opposing team so we could have a game.
I got to take a few shots off of my friend who playes goalie, which I've never had a chance to do in a game. But "my" team ended up winning 3-2. We all thought they officially lost and we were just playing the game off the record... but it turns out the loss counted for my friends team. Oops.
Here's some footage of the game. I thought maybe I could catch a goal on video while I was on the bench--it didn't work out, but I thought I'd share anyway.
I'm playing wallyball tonight. I'll take some video of it and include it in next post--it's intense! Crossing my fingers that it doesn't sleet on your run this evening.
