workouts

longwinded and dull. read at your own risk.

my skinned knee won't heal. everytime i bend it i rip off the scab again. on the other hand, it's not infected either, so i'm ok with this limbo it's in. apparently i can run 10 min miles without bending my left knee (this morning i ran 2). my gas comes in cannisters, and i think i'm out, which means no hot water, which means i need to shower at the gym, which means i need to go to the gym.

tuesday i ran a shuttle workout, only did three sets where the boys did 4 (i came late), but i felt lightheaded and exhausted during the whole thing, like my head was way too heavy for my neck (i guess that's not lightheaded, eh?). i've never felt closer to fainting. afterwards, we threw a bit, and the first one i had to jump for, my calf cramped up (which reminded me of that shot of yelena in the video). i didn't even push myself that hard on the turns (being careful for my left ankle, which rolled slightly at sunday's practice--where i shut down eucy, although she played without a shirt on and she had really nice abs, which was intimidating at first until i realized that my flubberly tumbly could keep up with her). anywho, i think the workout taught me how to fire on the quad cylinders better. kicking it up a notch!

worlds in two days! catching and throwing almost daily this week!

today i'm tired in a hold my chin way.

I haven't read your workout blog in a while! And here I am mentioned in the last post. Didn't it suck when your calf cramped? I haven't had that many calf cramps during the club season, I think because I usually played 1-2 points at a time in tournaments. There was one 3.5hr saturday practice where we scrimmaged savage and my calfs kept cramping and I eventually had to stop practicing.
