This week I’m set to return to the field, and it’s been way too long if you ask me!
It’s the last match before a week off for the Christmas festivities so hopefully I can put in at least a half-decent performance and work towards getting my place back in the starting 15 for the new year.
It’s been a busy month for me, what with 21st birthdays and band practices. Atlases, the band I’m in are releasing an E.P through Stuttgart-based record label Day By Day Records, and therefore the five of us have been writing new material at pace for the last month.
Considering I go to the University of Gloucestershire, one goes to Westminster and another in Brighton it’s been an absolute mission to get anything done at all.
Still, I’m glad everyone’s going to be in one place again for the next month or so, freeing me up to play some rugby and take part in some long overdue exercise.
This week there is a friendly scheduled that is yet to be confirmed although I am told there is definitely a match. I’ve been thinking about going for a run or something, give myself some sort of preparation, but to no avail as yet. If I had little drive to go to the gym with heating, it’s not surprising that I’m lacking the motivation to take a leisurely jog in the midst of December!
When it comes to match day however, it’s a different story, I have no problem with putting my body through the worst. Maybe it’s because I’d be letting others down, I don’t know, but there something there urging me on.
I’ve never really understood it myself, because thinking about it right now I’m not keen at all. The easy option would be to declare my unavailability when the group text gets sent out tomorrow, and spend my Saturday on the sofa with a beer, watching the rugby!
