When
I began this blog last September, I thought it would be interesting to
track my progress during the 300 days prior to the 2014 PDGA Amateur Disc Golf
World Championships.
I have found that
finding something to write about every day is hard. Who wants to hear about how much weight I’ve
lifted every day, or how may miles I’ve walked? I mean really, day after day, after day is just boring. I'm actually rather surprised that I continue to stick it out.
So
sometimes it seems that days go by before I post another message on my
blog. Today is one of those days.
Training
through the Christmas/New Year’s season was a new thing for me. While I continued to train every work day,
and played disc golf on the weekends, I also had the added detraction of all
the holiday food, Christmas cookies, and family gatherings with all sorts of
good food to deal with as I tried to
work toward my goal of being as fit as possible by July.
The
last few weeks have been a turn around.
I lost those few extra pounds that crept on the scale and am still
working hard to not waste a day of training.
The
last few times that I have played disc golf I’ve noticed that I actual can
throw farther than I could previously. I’ve
also noticed that my technique has suffered.
I guess muscle memory at my age needs more regular reminding of how I
should throw those hunks of plastic.
This
spring I’ve signed up for several tournaments.
This is a new thing for me. It
will be interesting to see how I do. I will definitely report the results here.
171 Days to Worlds!
