Soccer’s been a little hit and miss lately, but I did make it out tonight. 2 goals and lots of fun under the lights. As you may remember about 3 months ago after a physical the doctor told me I was obese… Obese? A little over weight, but not obese.
So tonight (didn’t seem any different than any other night) I hear the defense barking out this, “He’s too fast, we’ve got to get ahead of him” (after I’d beat them five or six times). Then this from a teammate, “How are you running so fast?”
Not sure how to take that. “How does an obese guy like you run so fast?” or was it meant to be “how are you able to out run the younger, seemingly more athlete guys on the opposite side of the ball?” or was it just “you’re running pretty fast?” Regardless it made me smile and I score two goals. Love soccer on Monday nights (only two more weeks to go).
