Tonight was the first game of soccer I've played in 8 years.

I'm not sure how I measured up other than the fact that they were better. Since the other team had won the championship the past 3 years, rather than having a "win" game plan, we went with the "don't get shut out" game plan. Well, we succeeded. I'm not even sure how we got a goal since we were rarely not on our own side of the field. Our supporters from the sideline would give their support by yelling "go Defense" or "come on big D."

Since I haven't run this much since I started driving, I was on the sideline most of the time "resting." In the meantime, I got to talk to some of the girls who had come out to watch. The game ended with a 1-5 or 6 score. I lost count since I was usually busying myself with trying to breathe.
