5-23-18 (Wednesday) Tennis.

Today was my first tennis day in a week.  Since it was raining, the practice was at the indoor facility.  During the first hour, we had two courts so we were able to get in a lot of turns with drills.  But the second hour we only had one court so things slowed down quite a bit.  But either way, to start the evening, I was able to warm up with one of the top players in the club and after the mid-court rallies, we were banging out the full court rallies.  Tons of fun playing with a better player.  It is so satisfying when I can knock some unreturnable strokes at them.  It was a good practice, but I still need work on returning deep low slice balls, and overall hard returns.  My reflexes are not what they used to be as is my eyesight which is probably to blame.  I can't pick up the ball as quickly because of the weakness of my eyes.  Oh well, I'll just have to adapt.

In the end, I burned 919 kcals, as noted on my HRM, but I stupidly forgot to start the HRM and ended up starting it about 45 minutes late.  So I think I would have burned closer to 1500kcals.
