Run Forrest, Run

Trivia: “How many total major championships did Bobby Jones win from 1923 until his retirement at age 28 in 1930? A) 7 B) 9 C) 11 D) 13” Answer below.

It was a very busy weekend, but I still managed to rest up for the week ahead. Well, if you count six hours of sleep as “resting up”.

My youngest had a birthday party and sleepover on Friday evening. And I was out Friday evening also and had a truly fantastic time. Saturday morning we hosted another Parmasters Kitchener-Waterloo Preview Event and then I picked up my youngest from his sleepover – he had way too much fun and way too little sleep! Saturday afternoon was spent working mostly, and then in the evening my eldest had his first hockey game of the season. They won 5-2 and he head at least one assist.

Sunday morning dawned to another 5 km charity run with a very close friend. This run, the CIBC Run for the Cure, is more about raising money than competition, so we weren’t timed. But, by my watch, we shaved close to two minutes off of our time at the previous run a couple of weeks ago. Good stuff!

Sunday afternoon was mostly working and hanging out with my boys.

Well, it’s time to get back at it. This will be a busy week, as are most, or actually, all.

And the answer: “D) 13. This ranks second only to Jack Nicklaus’s 20 major wins (including two amateurs), which occurred over a span of 27 years.”
