The first day - why do we look so silly?

Have you seen these people walk by? Bobbing along with water bottles on their bottoms, through rain, snow, hail, hurricane, tornado, earthquake, attack by Vogons... That's us now! No longer can I shake my head at frosted walkers and runners on my way home to hot chocolate and TV. Now I will smile and wave at them as Toni and I walk by, bobbing along with water bottles on our bottoms.
The first 5 km have been walked.
In the words of Bilbo Baggins, "It is a dangerous business, Frodo, going out your door. You step onto the road, and if you don't keep your feet, there's no telling where you might be swept off to."

do you think, as our bums shrink, there will be less bobbing?
