Golfing to lose weight

The Masters Tournament starts this Thursday and lots of people will watch it on various platforms. 

Seems that we enjoy watching golf.

Golfers have many reasons for their sport.  Competition with themselves or others.  Enjoy the outdoors.  Social time with friends.  Networking outside the office.  Fitness.  Emotional well-being.  A reason to go shopping. Wearing cool clothes.

Doubtless some golfers golf to lose weight, but that's not often.

Runners on the other hand, commonly say that as a reason to run.

It’s not better for health than going for a walk; nor is it worse.   It’s definitely a performance activity.

(btw, perhaps 1 in 6 Americans runs.  Half of that group runs regularly – about the same as the number of golfers)

Let’s re-energize our love of running this week! Enjoy the outdoors, enjoy your body, buy a cool hat to wear while doing it!

Happy Running!
