Day One

Welcome to Chillocothe, Missouri.

Some of my husband's family lives in this quaint little town. They also happen to live directly aside a fairly decent track. The Hornet's track to be exact. The weather according to relatives from Texas was freezing cold (she's a triathlete). So, this means the weather was perfect for me. Nice and warm in my running tights. I ran ten minutes because I was feeling like the altitude was bothering me, then I stretched and ran some more. I can't imagine there was an discernible difference in altitude but I was definitely feeling something; it could be that I have only be exercising indoor and it's been mostly elliptical and bike. Anyway. It's a darn good thing I ran today because my dirty brother, Did I mention dirty?, decided to try and sneak out of my challenge by starting up running again (hooray) without me. Then he would always be one day ahead of me for all eternity. Sly. Sly.

No bananas though! Hahaha. Eat that.

Maybe one mile. At least ten minutes. I tried to go fast for a lap. My hips are killing me though. It's like I need some oil or something for my joints. What am I? A tinman?
