I played in an 11pm-4am indoor ultimate tournament with a team from RIT. We really kicked some serious ass until the championship game where we proceeded to kick our own serious asses. We couldn't catch, throw, or even stay on our feet. We were literally falling down all over the field. Maybe that was because we had all been up for about 20 hours at that point and were suffering from dehydration. I had a really fun time BUT realized that I am not in shape. I cannot run for any extended period of time, I cannot sprint. I can sort of throw, but I have forgotten how to cut and how to fake hard.
This is all motivation for me to get into shape and get my act together before the Georgia tournament on March 17/18. I have 20 days to shed some weight and do something about this. That's enough time.
In other news, I am beginning to get cabin fever. I want to go outside in jeans and a t-shirt. I can't wait until I can walk around and play sports outside. I need more sunshine--my hair is dark and my skin is light. Just about four more weeks and things will begin to turn around. Weathering the long winter might be worth the feeling that each spring is happening for the first time.
