Try telling that to Lauren Cupp, and she&#8217;ll assure you that golf can be quite the fitness proposition. An accomplished traditional golfer, Cupp has ventured into SpeedGolf, the hybrid of running and golf that has a cult following across the globe. Fresh off her 2018 world championship in the golf biathlon, we slowed Cupp down enough to fetch a few answers to our usual spate of questions.
