Thank goodness for rain! Today the coaches were planning to have us start hitting, and as I said yesterday, I was very nervous about ramming into people and being knocked around by other players. Fortunately, it was rainy today, and we practiced indoors once again. We ran through some plays, and learned how to tackle properly. Good news: I am feeling a bit more confident when it comes to the plays.
The only problem with today was the conditioning. Ow! Today was the first day we’ve done conditioning for football practice, and it really hurt. We had to run around for a while, then Coach Lark told us to do 20 push-ups, then 20 sit-ups, three times with our shoulder pads and helmets on. Wow, that was the hardest I’ve worked in a long time. Tomorrow, the plan is to start hitting, and I am a bit uneasy with that general thought. I’ll write about how that goes after practice tomorrow.
