Truck Retreat - Day 1

4 hour practice: drills, scrimmages, conditioning.

Afterwards we went for a swim in the Shenandoah, hitched a ride across it by grasping the side of some dude's jetski, then took turns riding a rope swing into the river. While trying to dyno for a knot in the tree where we climbed out of the river for the rope swing, I slipped and fell six feet or so onto the random metal ladder at the base of the river bank. Banged up from that but it was worth it.

Later the team grilled and chilled at a mowed-lawn campground in Front Royal, drinking games and shenanigans ensued. I also made friends with campers at the next site over when I saw them playing kubb, and it turned out that a couple of them played ultimate and knew who the Current were. That was neat. Another lady outside the showers also recognized us as ultimate players after she saw my Rutgers jersey. The sport is growing!
