Altitude and Exercise

The birds woke me up this morning at 4am. Couldn't get back to sleep so I decided the best thing I could do was go exercise. Off to the exercise room I went. It felt good - did 20 minutes on the treadmill. The altitude has really been kicking my butt lately and I thought exercise would help with this. Just a few more years and hopefully we'll be moving on from Colorado. My body just cannot seem to adapt to the altitude. I don't know why either. I drink plenty of water, if I drink anymore I'll probably explode. If I can keep up with the exercise I should see an improvment.
