Mmm Monday ~ Mon 27th Feb

Monday is here!!! Normally I'm not a fan of Monday's but today I get to do a BEACH WALK! WOO HOO!  I also get to go with Heather again and we have also planned to have lunch at the end so a lovely little treat and also some more time to talk if we have any more energy tee hee!

Today we are women on a mission and we are looking for a PB.  We have the power to do it and know now NOT to walk through any water puddles!  The above photo I thought would be good to take from the 'other' side LOL.  This is the Glenelg Jetty which some weeks keeps getting further and further away!

We power through those 12kms like legends and DO a PB of 1.44. 03.  Hoorah!  I noticed however I only smashed through 877 calories - oh no I must be getting fitter LOL.  I will have to 'bring' it next time.

I take a few photo's this time of things that I find funny.   The first is that someone has lost their key's and someone's hung them here.  We just left them hopefully the owner will come back looking for them.  

Also these signs are everywhere and I do understand that they meant this is a shared path for bikes and walking but as I'm so exhausted my mind is a bit warped and I think 'look out for loose bike's you will expected to jump over them' LOL.

Oh and I took this photo because as we were walking and nearly power walking at this point to make sure that we got a PB these three ladies came out of no where and overtook us!  We couldn't believe it, so we decided that they only started at Glenelg and when they get to Brighton then they are going to turn around and go back!  LOL.

After our walk we sit down and enjoy a lovely lunch - fish with salad.  I took a photo also because it highlights a few things and important changes for the both of us.  Firstly on the menu it was 'Battered Garfish with Chips and a small side salad' so we said can we have the fish grilled (1 point for us) then can you please hold the chips (1 point for us) so then they offer to double the salad (1 point for us) oh can you please put the salad dressing on the side (1 point for us).  

It was so yummy.  We also got served a massive bowl of homemade tartar sauce which I had a small scraping off but the lemon also brought out the flavour in the fish.  I'm not a huge fish eater usually but this was really tasty and it just goes to show after such a small time how my taste buds are changing and adapting to new foods.

This beach walk ends my Facebook Dedication walk bringing a grand total of 62 kms walked so I overshot my original goal of 57.  Yay mini challenge completed!!! So this last stretch was dedicated to - Beck Newell
Rebecca Griffiths ~ Jodi Burgan ~ Amanda King ~ Paul McDonald ~ Gay Lee ~ Kelly Lakeman ( of course I had to make sure I walked 1km for myself!!!).

Oh forgot DD12 is away on camp so it's quiet in the house.... 
Yesterday (Sunday) was also rest day so it's why I didn't make a post and also this morning I took a 'sneak' peak on the scales and woo hoo it looks like I have beaten the 'all you can eat demon'.  I'm down on the numbers even further, the excitment is building for a great weigh in!!!
