Football
I played football a couple of days ago. It is a long time since I did. It is even longer since my thighs felt the way they do now; as if they are hanging on to my torso by just a thread. It’s not that I am unfit; but no amount of long distance running or stretching can pepare you for the short, intense bursts of effort needed for football. I should have known because I’ve been rejecting many offers to start playing squash simply because I know my “fast twitch” muscle mass has simply wasted away over the years through non-use. Having said this, I enjoyed it and I will be back as often as I can with my own personal philosophy of gamemanship :if you can’t catch ‘em then trip ‘em.
