When you make a choice, stick to them even when the road ahead looks like its going to kill you. A leisurely walk gone wrong. Sort of.

The one thing I will never regret in my life is putting myself in uncomfortable situations by choice as opposed to finding myself in one. I mean what is 14 kilometres of just a leisuirely walk around the city to the surf on a Sunday morning.

I mean I am not complaining but the one thing I will never regret in my life is going with my girls for a days walk at a leisurely pace. Sight seeing and just enjoying the crowds who are there for a good time or a good cause.

Then life takes you in its hands and just whirls you around as you try to enjoy your walk. Going so well. I start to get a feeling deep within me. It is an urge so great all I think about is to try and forget it, but when your body tells you to go you have to find an outlet.

Where is the toilet when you need it!

We are just at the start! No relief in sight. The one thing I will never regret in life is having the will to hold on to things that are threatening to take over and just boil you with its squeezing grip. Tightening and tightening like a vice on a water bomb. Gah! The crowd just keeps getting bigger and bigger and we have yet to start or me find that golden throne or podium.

I kept this feeling to myself, just hoping there is a light at the end of this literal tunnel. Of course there is light here also or else everyone here would be falling on top of each other in the dark. But that is another kind of horror story I am imagining, like a bad zombie chase.

The other one thing I will never regret in my life is hoping since just after this part in the walk I come or I should say we come across a bunch of porta loos. I am saved, or at least my pride is since I can relive myself. I duck off from the girls, telling them to just keep going, walking that is, and I will catch up to them. What can go wrong?

Well. As it turns out when there are a ton of people heading the one direction and they do not stop you immediately see or imagine my effort in going after them. I had to wait a good ten minutes to get my turn.

The one thing I will never regret in my life is my stoic approach to pursuing what I set out to do. I told them I would catch up so instead of a leisurely walk I am now on a jog. I am regretting the jog, but the decision to catch up? Never!

I will never regret finding Wally along the way!

I will never regret saying I will catch up.

I will never regret pushing myself to jog.

I will never regret taking photos of random things along the way as I jog some more to catch up.

I will never regret my decision to keep on jogging as I try to catch up to them, even when the sea of people just keep meeting me and still no sign of them. Where are you girls?

I will never regret random landscape selfies along the jog of leisure... my legs are burning... I am not regretting anything.

There is no time to regret decisions especially when everyone along the way to the finish are there with you, egging you on.

I have already ran a significant distance, I don't have my fitbit today so I am not even sure how far I have gone. No regrets...

Gosh the view is very nice in this part of Sydney. I had to take a little breather here just so I can take a photo of a random girl taking a photo my way. Wonder if they are looking at their phone now and wondering as much as me. Then again she could be taking a selfie.. Yup, just realised it is a selfie... I regret having to say this little thought out LOL

More music along the way. Great Sunday leisurely jog.. . when you make plans and life takes it from you because of your unregrettable choices.

This kid looks like they took regret and shoved it so far that they are living the life performing to thousands of people with the one guitar song. I have to say they are pretty good.

What in tarnations, I am nearly at the end of the walk.. I mean jog and still no sign of the girls... I mean there are girls here but not my girls... and that is the finish line! These two said they will walk slowly so I can catch up. Still I am not regretting making my choice... my legs on the other hand...

Still no sign... wonder if I passed them... but they said they will be walking on the middle of road and I have been jogging on the middle of the road...

Hmm I think I did pass them... I call my daughter... they are about half an hour behind me... What!?

The one thing I will never regret in my life is putting myself in uncomfortable situations by choice that I end up with serendipity on my side. There I was thinking I will finish this event in three hours but instead shaved an hour off it, all because of my choice to tell them to keep on walking and me going to the toilet... but mainly the choice to allow them to not wait for me...

Look at these cool cats dancing for photos and videos, they had a boom box with them as they went on their walk.

And just like that I find them and we go back home to strain for the next few days as our bodies recover from this little ordeal we all chose to take part in.

The little kicker in the end to take the bus out of there... why are they on top of another hill...

Now the stand out for me in regards to the choices we all make is this gentleman here.

Now that is commitment to choice made a life time longer than me being alive on this Earth. No regrets there. Good on them! Keep up the good work old timer.

Thanks for your time.

Hope you all had a good weekend.
