I have an elbow brace on my right elbow, a back brace on my lower back, and both knees are wrapped with some cold pain gel, and needless to say, I played some games yesterday, and am feeling a bit on the sore side today.
I think the average age of the players yesterday was around 26 years old, with me being the oldest at almost 56 years old.
So that means I was 30 years older than the average player yesterday but still ended up winning almost all of my games. We only lost one game. That was my teammate’s fault, who also works with me at a local heating and cooling services company, not mine. We had one really long rally caught on tape and I really want to see it because there were some weird and crazy plays that happened in a really short amount of time, maybe about 30 seconds only. Someone happened to be taping us on that game, and, after his shift today at a local heating and cooling services company, he’s going to edit it. My teammate and I should have some footage tomorrow, which I am a bit leary of sharing on social media because I told all of my friends and family that I quit playing volleyball months ago because of really disappointing injuries. Right now I am cooling down all my joints with cold gel and then plan on heating them up again with some hot water from the heating component in our living room. I will survive, but now I sound like the boy who cried wolf with my injuries.
