High school loop in the late afternoon. Tried to push the pace a little harder than usual. Just as I was getting out of the shower after my run, I got a phone call from one of the girls on the soccer team I coach. She was wondering if the game wasn't at 5:45 instead of 7:00 pm as I'd mentioned in practice the day before. I ran downstairs to look at the schedule and make absolutely sure. I about died when I saw that it was at 5:45 since it was about 5:42 at the time. I yelled at my daughter to grab my stuff and we ran for the car, getting dressed on the way. Fortunately all the girls were on time and one of the dads had organized them to some extent so the game was able to start on time. The girls seemed to be a little off in their performance though and we ended up losing 3-0. |
