Went golfing today, first time in 7 weeks! (I went the day before the injury). Yippee.  Figured it was about 2 miles, plus I was carrying the golf bag.  Did AWESOME on the first 4 holes, 2 pars and 2 bogeys, then went waaayyy down hill and finished with a 58. My calf was tirreeddd and right now I can tell its really tired.  I just want my calf to be nice and strong again!  We'll see how I feel tomorrow, but if its not too tired or sore I think we'll go golfing again!

walked 11 holes golfing today, but then had to walk all the way back in (getting dark) from hole 15 so it was a good bit of walking, maybe almost 3?

played bad though, nothing to write home about!
