In the final!

Since Friday I have been at my son's football tournament in Preston and today they battled their way into the final.  The game looked like it was going to penalties to decide the outcome but a last minute goal finished the match off in our favour.  The whole team have worked hard and not everything has gone their way as they have lost the first goal in two out of three games - hopefully the coaches and players will spot the pattern and do something about it!  But the players BELIEVE they can win and this is a great attitude to have at such an early age.  So tomorrow is the final and I think the parents on the sidelines will be the most nervous as I certainly kick every ball!
So this was my day off and I am please to say my legs certainly feel the better for it.  After another day off tomorrow I will be ready to start my recovery week's training.  It's nice to be able to focus on my son's performance for a while rather than my own.
