Count down is on!

Bee coz I...have only hours to go now until my fun power walk! I have been resting up today, although I did lots of incidental walking. My lungs are still not 100% but the snot factory has reduced production so that's a win! I have some ace plasters for my blister so I'm set to go!

I'm going to bed early too as I have to be at the train station for 6.45am, billy cooked me dinner too so that was a bonus!

Well I had better go iron my Tshirt and attach my race tag (GPS tracker) to my walking shoes - I just have to decide if I'm walking in my walking shoes or runners! Still can't make my mind up!

5 days to go!

Bee coz I...only have 5 days until my big power walk, my body has clearly decided that it likes to be sick for the run/walk for the kids events!

At least it's only a head cold at this stage. I went back on my chest meds a few days ago and touch wood congestion on my chest clears up with out turning into something nasty.

This time last year I was on crazy meds as i had pneumonia so I'm not complaining!

New job is going well I can tell I'm going to love it!

I have our group training today so not sure how I will go and I have to make sure I will recover in time for my walk lol

Well must go, have a good day Bee x x

12 days to go!

Bee coz I...after 12 1/2 years in the youth team secured a new position at work in the community development team I have been busier than busy finishing up my position. I start my new job today!

I'm not sure where the days are going but I do know its only 12 days to my big fun walk, how did that happen?

It's been hard training as the heat has been relentless, my goal of doing 15km each weekend has been compromised, I have been doing 3 X 5km walks as the heat has been above 36oC all weekend, in fact all week! We are melting!

I'm doing another fun walk the weekend after too, it's a fundraiser for the area I did the walk last post. So it's a 2hr drive to get there but it will be worth it.

Well must go as I have to look smart at work now, yikes I may have to spend more than 5mins a day on my beauty routine.

Ta ta for now Bee x x

25 Days to go!

Bee coz I....go red (artistic license used on photo) when I exercise I often look burnt, it takes about 40mins to go fully back to normal.

Sometimes I also look silly when I exercise, like the hat I made with my running top on sunday to keep me cool! I left the arms down to swat the flies and the knot at the front doubled as a peek! I know I'm a genius (hmm maybe not it took a while for me to remember how to spell that)

Today I felt I looked silly doing burpies (spell check wanted to change that to but pies) in the gym, we were flogged at a work personal training session. It was harrowing!

My legs held up but my arms were like jelly, I knew I was in trouble when I couldn't open the change room door, then in the shower I thought "there should be a disabled shower seat in here" and then when I couldn't eat my lunch for an hour as I knew I would spew!

Sure - I'll be back next week for more!

27 days to go...

Bee coz I...went visiting friends at the coast, I left a little early and factored in time for a couple of walks, the first walk was a breeze, a bimble along the beach with a cool sea breeze, the second was much harder as it was 34oC and there were March flies attacking me, it's the first time I have struggled a bit to finish a walk it was a good challenge.

They have a fun run down here in a few weeks so I might come down for that :)

I really enjoyed my weekend and it was just what I needed to set me up for a busy week.

Off to work now so I had better get up! Bee x x

28 Days to go!

Bee coz I...spent the day out at a farm about 2 1/2 hrs away, I only had time for Zumba today.

I ignored the washing, lawns and shopping to go with a friend to check out a camper bus that she might be buying. It was a great day, I was lucky to meet a couple called Howard and Dawn, Howard is well into his 80's and is as sharp as a tack and fit as a fiddle. We enjoyed a good chat, afternoon tea and headed off. Don't think my friend is going to buy the bus, it was a bit past its useby date :)

The dog (Leo) has had me up two nights in a row at 4.30 am with his barking, he had better be tired tonight or he is in big trouble!!!

I've got another big trip tomorrow down to visit a friend at waratah bay then of to visit Tarwin Lower, so I guess I should go to bed! Nighty night x x Bee x x

L: 1 biscuit

31 days to go!

Bee coz I...am under the pump (in a good way) at work at the moment I am making sure I don't give into the urge to buy yummy food for lunch. Lucky for me I LOVE baked beans on toast!

Tried out some veggie sausages tonight - not bad but I think I prefer real sausages!

Did Zumba tonight, a few more tracks were thrown in just to confuse us, but it was still fun!

Big day tomorrow so I had better hit the sack - nighty night peeps x x Bee
