QP Open weekend

The weekend went and another Quarry Park Open has gone; and as expected I sucked!

Started off well and made a great start. Was placed in the group starting on hole 3 which was good, not usually started that close to the beginning of a round before. My round started off with 4, 2, 3, 2, 4 (OB), 2 ... so after 6 holes i was -1 par! It all went completely to pot after that and scored 3 of my worse rounds in years ... 69, 70 and 74 :-(

Ah well, there is always next year!

So 3 rounds of disc golf, but also 2 beers in the house so beer / exercise ratio is still negative. But soon it'll get better ... hopefully :-)


Current Status : Bad!

Bad weather == BBR (Bad Beer Ratio)

The weather was lovely all day in Reading yesterday then I got on the train home and as it was pulling into Leamington station it was peeing it down. Due to this motivation to run was pretty much none existant and then the mrs offered me a beer; how could I turn it down?

Ah well, 3 rounds of golf at the weekend should help with the beer credit crunch.

Big Beach Sports - Disc Golf on the Wii

New game released today which has disc golf in it!

Not played it or anything, but at least its getting the sport more coverage and hopefully more people will have a go and then want to have a go in real life :-)

Round of 66, how rubbish am I?!

Last night went over to Quarry Park and played a round with Rich and Scott. Was good fun and played some good shots. Managed to get a couple of birdies on holes 8 and 10, but got to hole 13 and fell apart some what and ended up shooting a 66 which was rubbish! Hopefully I can improve at the weekend.

As for the beer, had dinner at my parents came home and drank a couple of bottles of Stella while eating some left overs and watching some west wing. So the round of golf was good, but then went and completely un-did it with the beer.

Ah well, I'll be playing at least 3 rounds at the weekend and planning on going for a run tonight so should be in positive in my beer / exercise account. Will keep you updated :-)

First running ness ...

Last night when I got home I went for a run. Yes shocking isn't it that I actually went out and started the first miles for this crazy thing I've decided to do!

The route can be found at click

And I did it in 15mins, so in runners terms it was at a pace of a 10min mile (ish). As Aakash says "just building a base" :-)
