Episode #180! Last week we kicked off a new series of lesser known sports that are growing in popularity. We covered Pickleball and Horseshoe Pitching. This week we started off with Horton Smith Golf Pro, Garrett Holt as he gave us the 101 information about the growing sport of Speed Golf! Combining endurance running and the finely tuned skill of golf, this combo sport has grown tremendously in popularity. Listen to learn all of the strategies and the mentality it takes to be successful.

We then discussed the extreme physical (some say crazy) events that require endurance running while completing wild and challenging obstacles. I am referring to Spartan Races, Warrior Dashes, and Tough Mudders just to name a few. Crawling through caves, jumping over fire, all another day at the office when you compete in these events. Amy Hietter joined us and helped us understand the picture of these courses along with the psychology of tackling and finishing these events.

The bonding force, socially and athletically, of both of these sports is evident and I challenge all of you to get out of your comfort zone and find your next adventure sport! Thank you to Garrett Holt and Amy Hietter for a fun hour and sharing your perspective.
We will continue this series for the next couple of weeks. Email the sport you want covered to acoachsperspective@gmail.com!
