I may not be there yet but I am a damn site closer than yesterday

I went to the gym this morning to walk for 30 minutes and try and get 2kms done and then when I hit 2kms I felt I could do more.

I walked 4.1kms this morning, without stopping !!!

Such a mind set change.  My heart rate got up to 170 and for most of the walk it was at 150-160.

I know for most this isn't a major achievement, for me walking is pretty hard work and 2 years ago I was exhausted after 2kms.

Next fun run will be a different story! Though I know 4kms in a gym with a fan going on and music pumping is a bit different from walking in the outside heat but it means that I am well on the way to being able to complete a 4km walk in a fun run with my head held high.

    Great having a chat this evening. You obviously are developing a fairly aggressive view of a day off, well done. Now you start another cycle I hope you get a hell of a lot out of it. Love Dad
