OUCH!

On Sunday, we (Alumni women's team) were supposed to play against Newton College. Unfortunately after the men started one hour late and because the pitch lacked lights, we had to postpone the game, probably until the 24th and then play two consecutive games instead. With my muscles still complaining about going back to practice on Thursday, I was quite happy.
Michael, who had come along to see me play, was a bit disappointed, but took some nice pictures anyway.


Rugby Newton


On Monday I ventured to an athletics stadium in central Lima, where the rugby people from different clubs are practising running and skipping and other things that will improve their overall performance. I discovered more places which could hurt.

Yesterday Sergio decided to get serious with the "normal" practice, so after warming up we first did exercises running with the ball and then spent half an hour practising tackling. I am now more blue and red than pink. Ouch! Today is definitely resting day.
