I put it down as nr. 11 on the 43 things list… ‘get in shape’… There is no real order in the list yet, just wrote them down as I made them up. But yesterday it became quite clear I am still far away from achieving that goal so maybe I should make an order and push this one up high on the list. Playing squash was great fun again, I actually missed it after not playing for almost 2 months. But where we normally play a best of 5, we now played a best of 3. On my request actually, but fortunately on quick agreement! ;-)
After loosing the 3rd set, and therewith the match, a bad idea, but after the 2nd set and wildly encouraged by my physical state it seemed the best plan at the time. Now I just tell myself I could have won it in 5! :-)
But this morning… the day after the afternoon before… Oh my lord… Waking up, no problem. Watching some tennis from the bed, quite good. Getting out of bed to get some breakfast, outch!!! Muscle pain all over… Especially my butt and my legs… But well, it all belongs to the game of course and not having played for 2 months doesn’t help much there! Plus it was very good for morale to read that I am not the only one with a muscle pain this morning. Bastiaan just wrote me the following (freely translated):
“Getting out of bed this morning was quite hard… Kinda forgot what muscle pain feels like ;-)”
Made me laugh, as I felt exactly the same! Wonder how I feel next time, after playing 5 sets again… Either way: bring it on! I am looking forward to it! Shape or no shape :-)
