Sunday I took an active recovery day and walked 18 hole.

Sunday night I bought a new Driver for $40 on Craigslist.

Monday I took an active rest day and rode 18 & hit a bucket of balls with the big stick.

The result of all this ... well I am still sore ... but today I shot a 44 - 40 = 84

Tonight I ran an easy 5, but did throw in two 1/2 mile intervals at an 8:00 pace, being paced by an old guy that jumped in front of me on the path.  After a 1/2 mile I was whooped and knew the end of the path was about a mile away, so I walked half a mile, and when I saw him coming I turned around and started running again.  As he passed me I fell in stride for another 1/2 mile interval, and then coasted back home.

Just shaking the legs out for a big mileage week ... it is going to be painful!

Nice active recovery, that is something I could get into. I mean once I get over the stress of missing every putt.

Yes, putting is an issue! My goal has always been to break 90, tired of that nonsense, my new goal is to break 80! I straightened out my driver, next is chipping from just off the green ... and then will come putting! At least today my speeds were good so I only had three 3 putts. lol
