Golf Course - Week 1

This week I started to play golf. Actually my mom got a golf course as a mother's day gift from me and my brother (as I said here), so we were kind of part of the deal. We have talked about playing golf for years and now it was finally time to make it real.

The first thing, naturally, was to shop some proper clothes to the golf field. Luckily for my golf skills I've spend much more time in the field than in clothing stores. We started the course on Wednesday, practiced by ourselves on Thursday, had another lecture on Friday and had a practice day again today, Sunday.

We have this lovely trainer who has coached for forty years. There's no boredom seen in his face, he lives for the sport. This gives us belief that it's OK if we don't really get the swings spot on right away; we have fifty years or so to play the game and develop ourselves.

Now I'm just waiting to get to the field again and practice more and more. It's fantastic way to forget the businesses for a while. It's good for mental health just as well as for physical wellbeing. Yep, I'm addicted! :-)

Gone Jogging

Today was a free day from work for me. (Ok, I was at the office in the morning but left early.) So after a looong time, six months or so, I went running with the dogs. Sure I make long walks with them every day, but it always seems to be too hectic to go for a jog. But today was a good day to start - hopefully a bit more regular - running again.

Taking pics was a good excuse to breath a bit - for me and the dogs.

The weather was perfect; sun was shining but it wasn't too hot. We went to a forest nearby so also the trees gave shade from the sun. I could tell from the dogs that we haven't been running for quite a while. They were just as tired as I was, but we did surprisingly well. I used to be a proper sportswoman earlier in my life but the latest year has been so busy at work that the sports has been neglected. But I'm planning to do a change! :-)
