So today we had 'The Big Game' that I spoke of yesterday.
Before the game, I warmed up by shooting baskets and doing some dribbling drills to get the cardio up.
The teams, if you remember, were guys vs. girls. They outnumbered us by 4 women to 3 men. We guys ended up winning by a couple. We got a great workout! We played full court! I took an elbow to the ribs at one point. I was guarding one of the women and she threw an elbow and NAILED me. It took me a moment to catch my breath. Let's just say she hated it when anybody guarded her! Fun game all around, though. Our timeouts were sponsored by Centrum Silver, Ben-Gay, and Geritol!
After the game, I hit the weights on my own since my trainer is still on vacation. I almost called it quits after the game -- I actually headed back to the locker room -- but figured I was just cheating myself if I didn't lift today. I figure I have to start doing it on my own sooner or later as I won't have a trainer soon!

Hey Dave! Congratulations on your progress! Normally I work out at Mercy, but am in Budapest, Hungary for work for 2 months. Your post made me laugh, I wish I could have seen the game! Was it Mary who gave you the elbow jab? Be sure to tell Paul I said hello!
I saw in your 3/5 post something about how you wished you could continue working out at Mercy after this is over. I wanted to make sure you knew you can! I was not referred there by my doctor, nor do I work there. The general public can join and it's only $30/month or so. Just ask Deb about it!
Take care! See you in about a month! Dina
Hi Dina!
It was this one lady that started coming not that long ago...I think it was Barb or something. Vicious!
I'll tell Paul in class tomorrow that you say hi!
I'll ask Deb about a membership for when it's all said and done! Thanks for the heads up!
And thanks for reading! It's awesome to know that people read this!
Dave :)
