I had never attempted anything like this but through joining Weight Watchers in January I felt challenged to try the 4km walk at Parramatta Park. My supportive husband (who took the photo) and my three youngest grandchildren walked with me. I didn’t think I would finish in time but as can be seen in my favourite photo of the day, we finished in 1 hour and 50 minutes! My grandson had wanted to run the 8km – not likely I had replied; the eldest granddaughter thoughtfully observed that 4km was further than she realised; and the youngest one, in no uncertain terms, told her Grandpa near the end that she was NEVER coming back here again!! As people lapped us on their second time round, and I was obviously struggling, my husband in a loud voice observed that the first lap was easy but this second lap was a lot harder. It made me laugh!
