MK's Hell Week (aka soccer try-out two-a-days). Highlights include:
running sidewalks
her leaky red gallon cooler of water
sprints
"Indian" runs
the daily trek to the river to soak sore legs in the icy water after a.m. practices
getting the chills when she smothered her legs in Icy Hot every afternoon
driving to and from Purgatory with her learner's permit!
long naps on the couch between practices
afternoon scrimmages
running more sidewalks
first cuts
second cuts....
Results are in. MK made the High School JV/Varsity soccer team as a wee sophomore! She just beats the tar out of whatever she puts her mind to.
Update: Pre-season, she’s played three JV and one Varsity game so far and scored a goal each JV game. Varsity lost 1 to 0. JV won: 3 to 2 ; 3 to 0; and 2 to 1.

Congrats, MK! That is way cool! When does she get her license?
Go Kenzie - Go Kenzie - get your groove on! Congrats lady!
I remember Hell week(s) they were the worst! Summer before my Freshman year - I tried out for Alta's soccer team. I remember two a days - between practices, coming home, boiling cabbage - slathering it in butter and eating an entire head of cabbage - every single day - all of soccer season. Weird hu? Guess my body needed it. I also remember going to the Pepperwood pool to sit in the hot tub to soak my sore muscles every night during 2 a days.
Coach Mitchell used to have us run 10 miles every day (up 11400 south from Alta up to 1700 East. The burn - the hoses that we'd grab just to get some water...
Ahhh... the memories! Keep it up Kenz!
Kenz! You are so awesome!
That's all I have to say about that.
