Played scrimmage full court basketball games with my Fr-Soph team against a rival for an hour during our Monday night practice. The coaches from the other team played too, so it was all out trying to one up each other. It was fun, but now I need to take a day off from running because my groin,hips, and calves are sore from all the quick cuts and jumping. I was on a good streak too. Damn!
My mind says go, but my body says don't do it.
Count that as your speed workout for the week. When I play hoops, it is my knees and feet that ache the next day or two.
Now you know how I feel playing dek hockey and trying to keep up with my running.

Well, we're just old...what's Jason and Ricky's excuse.
Are you playing at the new rink at Golds?
Nope. I am still playing in Leominster. Don't know if I want to play in two leagues at my age. I am going to look into the Spring Leagues. They usually start up somewhere around the end of March. Who knows ... maybe I'll give it a shot.
... and stay away from the lawnmower too Ed!
Believe me, I think about that delightful event all the time. That and the NHL goalie split on the ice a couple years ago, that was another good one. I gotta buy some bubble wrap.
