The Color Run 2013

I already did the Color Fun Fest with my soccer ladies, but we wanted to see how the original Color Run ran things, plus it was during the day and our first one was at night. We convinced a few more ladies to run this one and had a pretty good group. Unfortunately it ended up being a super cold and windy day and we were worried that we wouldn't get enough color. We needn't be worried, as you can see in these pics:

All pretty and clean before the run

Soooo many people, and this is just one of 3 flights

Check out these tutus

Fail on my part at the jump pic, congrats to everyone else

Getting a little leaf blower action to clean some of the color off

So colorful!!!

Had so much fun with these ladies, can't wait for our next run!

SCFA Regular Season Champs!

This post is over a month late, but my Friday night soccer team won the league for the regular season! We've started a summer season with a few more teams, so hopefully we'll keep the winning going :) Here's a post-game sweaty pic for your enjoyment:

Go Comrades!

Cinco De Mayo Soccer Tournament in San Antonio

Happy Cinco de Mayo!!! This past weekend was the Cinco de Mayo Soccer Tournament put on by SASA. I played with my Friday night coed team (the Comrades) and it was lots of fun! We went to Chuy's on Friday night as a bit of a team dinner once everyone had made it into town. Then Saturday was bracket play starting with our first game against a fellow Houston team. We ended up winning 1 game and getting 2 ties on Saturday to advance to the playoffs on Sunday. Unfortunately, due to a combo of very few subs, a redic first day schedule, and probably a bit of out of shape-ness we ended up losing our Sunday game and getting 3rd in the tournament. All in all it was a great time, good to see some different teams for once and get some really great competition. Here are some pictures from the weekend compliments of Gina (I was far too tired, sweaty, and preoccupied to properly operate a camera):







The serious level pain I experienced on Monday tells me I am no longer in excellent tournament shape, but I did survive the weekend so it's a win in my book :)
