During the last 6 months, I have had to face the fact that my days of walking on the treadmill are over. Five years after having a total hip replacement, I just can no longer take the pounding on that surface. Although I continue to exercise in the swimming pool, I wanted to do something that required standing, was outdoors and would take some considerable effort. GOLF! That's it. I'll try to learn how to golf.
This afternoon, I had my first golf lesson at the Penn State University! It was so much FUN!!! I actually did quite well on the "driving range" where one practices hitting golf balls. A few of the golf balls went 10-12 feet and my instructor said that he was very impressed! It felt good to work up a sweat and I'm looking forward to my next lesson
