QUESTION:
I am planning on starting a marathon training program soon and it has specific days of cross training. It suggests swimming, biking or running, but I’m curious… Can golf be my cross training activity? I always walk when I play, so I figured just hitting some balls in between wouldn’t spoil the walk too much. What do you think?
Thanks for the answers guys. Would you say playing golf on a rest day is a bad idea? Or is that too much? I would really like to work in one round a week…

No, no, and NO!!!!
Golf does not get your heart rate up or make you lose your breath.
It might make your arms sore, if you hit hard, but it’s better to swim, bike, play football, soccer or basketball because it has running.
