The 3 Day - Day 1

3:30am came fast! We got all of our stuff ready and heading to the Opening Ceremony. The ceremony was very emotional and comical because everyone was dressed in their pink - guys in tutus and bras, women wearing bras outside of their shirts and LOTS of energy!
After all the tears it was time to walk! We walked about a mile when we were all stopped for credential scanning. That's how they keep track of all of us. When we left camp to walk, they were scanned and when we arrived to camp they were scanned. So after that we walked through the botanical gardens, through neighborhoods, cities, towns, and then to camp. First day was 22.1 miles, I walked 16.8 that day. Once back to camp I ate and saw the chiropractor and got my neck muscles worked on and my feet adjusted.
Camp was very cool, we slept in 6x6 tents that were pink and had semi truck trailers with showers in them. Porta potty's for bathrooms but very clean and they were cleaned daily so they didn't stink and all gross. We had the Shop 3 Day store, Energizer was a charging station for cell phones, and had portable battery chargers which were very cool. We had chair/foot massagers, a big screen TV to watch some TV.
