Kickball is Not for The Weak

Whoever said kickball was for kids apparently never played. gsSCENE had their first Kickin' it for Charity Kickball Tournament on May 2 at Ripken Experience. After the first game played, I knew this was going to hurt. Hurt really isn't the word I would use to describe how I felt the following day. Tortured, pained beyond belief and too sore to walk correctly better described how one's body would feel after playing in a kickball tournament.

It never failed, no matter who I talked to everybody said the same thing, "I am too sore to even walk." And kickball is supposed to be for kids! But other than the days it took to recuperate, the kickball tournament was nothing short of a success!

With 11 teams battling out, Handley's Pub was the champion. And the best part about the day was the $2,500 raised for United Way of Horry County. So even though it took me three days to be able to tie my shoes, I do believe it was all worth it in the end.
