Lunch- first very windy day of the fall. 6v6 plus my team had a 12 year old playing on it. The other team had 1 brand new guy and one pretty new guy, which really hurt them when throwing with the wind. Interestingly, the first 3 points were scored into the headwind. My team went up 3-1, then 3-2, then we won 5-2. I played fine, no big mistakes or spectacular plays. Wind games always add some throwing adventure.

AM- it was cold, rainy, and windy so I ran inside. 4 miles. Then weight, except leg press caused pain in my left knee so I didn't do that one for sets 2 and 3.

AM 5 miles running. Knee hurts when I bend it deep or push hard, but not when running so that's good.

Still cold so ran on treadmill. 8:30-8:00 pace, 6 miles, then 45 min weight session. Knee still bugging a bit, but not when running. I'll take it.

Lunch- 6v6 on the old field (it's been raining so we didn't want to tear up our new field). Very, very windy. My team played poorly- lots of bad throws, drops, blocks, etc. Lots of turnovers by both teams due to the wind, but we got beat 5-1. It was a butt-kicking.
