I finally went to Ultimate Frisbee at Purdue last night. I have known when they meet for a few weeks but I kept telling myself that I was too busy to go. I was really sort of apprehensive. I am not really one to memorize and execute plays, I'd much rather just run where I think I'm needed. But, my friend Carmen told me that they play pick-up after their regular game, so I wanted to go.
I had forgotten how much I love to play Disc.
I had a ball! The people were really nice and I even got thrown to a few times. I made some catches and throws and it was a good game. I was surprised that I was able to run as well as I did, it is probably the hill I have to climb every day that has kept me in shape. We played for 2 hours and it was just really fun. People were throwing forehand, backhand, "chickenwing" (that's only Ted), hammers, and probably some thumbers as well. I need to work on my throws because I'm rather out of practice but it was still amazingly fun. By the time I got home I was pleasantly exhausted and I slept really well.
Today my legs hurt, but I'm gonna be back on the field on Monday!
