Day 8 - Morning on the links

Woke up at 5am to pick up mate, James, for a round of golf.  Banged out push-ups and sit-ups, but unable to complete the rest of my sets...

Quickly scoffed down a bagel and 4 slices of tomato, which along with a cup of OJ, served as my morning breakfast.   Golf match started at 7:20am.  Because of long-drive, no warm-up time on the range and promptly sliced my first drive into the trees....ahhh.  The swing action fortunately improved from there, 47-front nine, 43-back nine.  Very cool island green as well - one-on, three-putt...ahhh again...

Lunch at the Clubhouse - stuck with a Ceasare Salad, small-bowel of clam chowder and one small piece of bread.  Resisted the temptation to order one of the "monster burgers" a heaping tray of chop-meat, bacon and toppings with fries.  Near-miss on a 1,500-calorie pitfall -)

Got home, took care of the squats.  Then was off to a farewell BBQ party for a teacher at my kid's school.  Tomorrow got to get my Week-1 picture updated...motivation for a better day in the gym and jump-rope.  meanwhile, Tokyo summer, steamy, humid and hot.  fortunately stunting the appetite.  -rp
