Football - I never knew I could ache that much

As I was in the office down south all week I normally dont get to do any running. One of the guys asked if I would be interested in a game of football with him and some guys that he plays with on Astro Turf.

I said I would be up for it so played at 12:30 and it was 7-a-side. I could not believe how unfit I felt. I did about 10 minutes and was absolutely knackered. Huffing and puffing I opted for a stint in goal and then skinned my knee on the Astro turf (lethal stuff).

I then took it easier for the rest of the game and thoroughly enjoyed myself. I was aching afterwards and for the next two days after.

Totally different to running which is constant pace.

Hope to do that every time I am down at the office.
