Training 10/7-10/13

10/7- JUICE PLUS HAS FAILED!  I was nearly 1 minute slower per mile after an extra dose.  That explains a LOT!  Still, it is quite unnerving to know that a food based supplement of fruits and vegetables could cause this type of reaction.  I don't know!

PM- Lakeshore 3 in 25-flat (8:20 pace) with a negative split (12:40-12:20).  I actually feel pretty good about this one.  It was just hours after being leveled by Juice Plus.  No more experimentation with pills.  I will NOT cheat again with caffeine for at least until the end of the month and I will stay on the high dose TRS.  We shall see what the hair test shows about the Titanium.  If I am not better by November, I will see a conventional doctor.
Distance-4.0

10/8- AM- Adrenals have spiked.  1 mile in 10:40.  This is as bad as it will get but the improvement may be slower than I would like.  It is imperative that I do NOT cheat this week on the caffeine.

PM- Repeated the Mile and my time is down to 9:17.  Faded on the back half.
Distance=2.0

10/9- AM- Another Mile at Montreat.  Improved to 8:46 this time with nearly dead even splits.

PM- Lakeshore 3 in 25:25 (8:28 pace).  Even pace with no real complaints.  Unfortunately, the improvements will diminish from here.
Distance=4.0

10/10- 1 mile at Montreat and my time is down to 7:49.  Glad my numbers continue to move in the right direction but I still have miles to go.

PM- Gold's 3 in 23:39 (7:53 pace).  BELOW the Mendoza line.  Splits were 7:43-7:57-7:59
Distance=4.0

10/11- AM- Montreat Mile and my time is down to 7:01.  No doubt that this was worth a sub-7 on the track.  Only 1 minute to go until I am back to respectability but that last minute will be tough to make up.  Splits were 2:20-2:22-2:19.  Just didn't quite have it in me today.
Distance=1.0

10/12- Junk run on the beach in New Hampshire.
Distance-1.0

10/13- New England Half Marathon in Concord, New Hampshire
Distance=14.0

-30 miles on the week
