Soccer News
Congratulations Alice, Becky, Emma and all the returning varsity players for making varsity soccer. Nice work. (I couldn't think of any clever little intro to this entry, so I'm just reporting it in a rather boring manner. But, I figure, the news is ineteresting enough that it doesn't need a clever little intro!). I presumably will be on jv, woo hoo! Although if I somehow get cut from that.... well then you can probably expect a somewhat bitter entry. But, not today! I'm very proud of my friends for making varsity, and I even have some bragging of my own to do. In the morning running session of preseason today (we run at 8 in the morning for a while, and the soccer part takes place later in the day), we had to run five laps around the perimeter of the school property, which people were estimating was about 3-5 miles. I started out at a normal Lib pace, but then upon realizing I wasn't tired, I decided to push it a little harder. So I made short term goals to pass people (by increasing my speed a little, but maintaining it) and I ended up finishing 7th out of everyone. I don't know exactly how many girls there are, but enough to fill up three soccer teams. So I was very pleased with that and I'm thinking that will help with ski team. If I keep running in between soccer season and ski season, I'll be sure to be in pretty good shape (I know, it's a little early to be thinking about ski season, but I can't help it). So that is the news for today.
