6-10-18 (Sunday) Tennis.
It was beautiful weather today. We were a little worried that it might be rainy but in the morning, it ended up being the perfect conditions for tennis. It was partly cloudy but the sun poked through a lot. Temperatures were just right for tennis also. It was warm enough to make get us a good sweat, but there was a nice breeze to dry just enough of the sweat so it wasn't dripping off all over our bodies.
Today was a little different because the number of members was a lot lower than usual. It started off with the regular Volley/Stroke but took a little less time usual. Also with the Serve/Return. Then, we just played matches. It was great. When we started to split the teams, one of the elite players specifically asked me to pair with him. We were a good pair. I lost my first service game, but we buckled down and got the break back. Then we went on to take the lead, but then my partner lost his serve, and we ended up tied with my service game as the final game due to time. I went down Love-30, with a double fault mixed in. But I again, buckled down and pulled out the win and the win for the team. We are a good pair, but we need to play together more to really get to know each other's style and movements. It was a great session.
In the end, I burned a good 2665 kcal. I will push it next time. I wonder if I can burn over 3000 in one session. Maybe when it gets hotter.
