My first Speed Golf tournament!

I was very excited when I found out I could do this Bob-n-Broc' MN Speed Golf tournament this year!


The weather was great, the sunrise a beautiful miracle morning, and Grandma Connie had our boys!  We were able to tour the course in Rosemount we never made it down to play with a dawn cruise around the first nine and Andy played the back nine while I watched him and warmed up with a jog.  



I beat my time goal of an hour and was hoping to be at bogey golf!





Memorable moments include a shorter par 4 I would have drove IF my ball hadn't cracked the NO CART sign by the green!

4 putting 16, 17 and 3 putting 18 hurt the heart a bit... wow the adrenaline gets you!  But before that I was hitting the ball (mostly) straight and playing best I have in a few weeks.

I met some great players from Missouri who travel all over, and seriously was tempted for a bit to go to Springfield, MO next weekend for their tournament if we didn't already have plans I'm excited about with the in-laws  (which will include some speed golf ;)!  Next year... Next year Springfield ;) Got some learning, new goals and practice to do... Onward to Mankato half for now... long run training commences and continuing my crosstraining with new challenge groups beginning tomorrow!


It was fun to check the old blogs and old scores I kept!  And wow, I sounded a bit like a wellness coach then too, and truly had my first fitness change with accountability when  Speed Golf used to be the only way I'd run :)
