I can't believe it is only 6 weeks to go till my walk to Sydney. From the last time I posted something not too much has happened or changed. I can't say my training has increased and my diet has been neither here nor there. Basically I have just stayed much the same as always.
However, I do not intend to miss my walk. I will still walk. It is something I do now. If I say I am going to do it, I will do it. No matter how fit or unfit I am.
After the last time I walk, I felt I did an amazing thing for myself. I set a mark for me. I felt like I could do anything now.
As I write this, I keep thinking of all the excuses I still have in my life. Yes I can walk to Sydney... in fact I don't really have anything to prove by re-doing the walk but I still have things in my life which I try to excuse, like my weight. Really the walk should fuel my desire and goal to lose the weight. I should be ignited to just get on with it.
Sometimes I just want to function normally and not have to think about what I should or should not be doing. I get tired of me and having to work it out and trying to find a solution to anything but that is what makes my life so colourful and a challenge.
Getting fired for this walk over the next 6 weeks is a priority. I want to walk with less weight. Not just because I want to look & feel fantastic but also for my joints. They won't cope so well if I still have all the weight I have on my body... so this is what I am aiming for. My aim is to be 6kgm (14lb) lighter by the walk. Plus I want it to be a starting point to continue getting fit. I have plans and I want to see them through... for me, for my family and for my daughters.
I know I have said this before about my daughters. Everything I do is really from them too. They have to have an example in their lives. I need to be the greatest. What sort of parent or role model am I if I keep using excuses not to go for the things I want?
Here we go folk, I am on my way to Sydney and again I will let you know how it all goes... I love how you all have followed my progress and stayed with me on my journey of life so far. This walk to Sydney is another journey which I am quite happy to have you along. Put Oct 12 in your diary and I will see you on the other side of the harbor.. or until I post again.
