Walk, Don't Walk Away

Not being on full form with health and that, I heeded yesterday's preformed hindsight and did the bridge walk as planned.

I got off the train at Milson's Point and walked across the bridge, through the Rocks and up to the Botanical Gardens via the Opera House. A beautiful walk, if you like city nightscapes and neon, and hell
sure it could be worse, but it's just the Opera House now. No biggy, plus the Eno lights were late on.
The Botanics were closed, something to do with "safety" or some other rubbish, so I had to back track along Maquarie St, down to the State Library and National Art Gallery, to the base of Brougham St and homewards.

Apparently a walk will burn the same number of calories as a run based on distance. TICK! But it's not helping the recovery or endurance, but I'm still a bit ill. I've a constant headache and the symptoms of flu without the snot.

So 26 miles in just over two weeks, two sessions missed and an over-riding feeling of anticlimax. Even though the schedule asked for 30mins walk/run and I completed 80mins walk, I don't feel like I've achieved the target. I will continue to walk instead of run until I feel better.

In other news, I bought new socks.

No Snickering.
