Soccer ate my life

No workouts in the last week, unless you count the pushup-situp-air squat pyramid that I did in the hotel in Wilmington on Sunday morning.

With all the rain we've had in the last month, the past week has been a flurry of re-scheduled and re-re-scheduled soccer games, culminating in a cross-state trip this past weekend. Two of KAD's re-re-scheduled games were canceled (yay rain) and have now become re-re-re-scheduled games to be played at some point in the (hopefully dry) future.

Son and I set out for Chapel Hill on Saturday morning, where his team played a game against the Triangle United soccer club. 3-1 victory. Then we climbed back into the car and headed for the coast for a Sunday afternoon game against the Cape Fear soccer club. Another 3-1 victory.

And what is our reward for all these victories? Son's team has now been recognized as one of the top 10 in the state and been promoted to the Premier division, the most competitive in the state. Which means instead of traveling through half of the state as a member of the First East division, next season we will get to travel throughout the entire state for regular season games. I am happy for Son, but dreading the financial, time and school impact of all this traveling. Oh well - I will deal with it when the time comes.

Anyway, hoping to get back to some kind of regular workout routine, starting this afternoon. After I digest the massive lunch I just consumed.
