3/24- AM- The adrenal spike has been confirmed. Opened with a 1:58 on just B12 and NAC. Fared no better after a scoop of Malic Acid and repeated the 1:58. 2 Thym Adren proved to be a game changer at 1:36 but that's not even close to enough to be considered respectable. Took 3 more Thym Adren before work and will try to gradually reduce the dosage. That's probably all for today.
PM- Didn't want to waste a beautiful day. Forced a non-stop half mile at Montreat in 5:50 (11:40 pace) with relatively even splits. Took no more Thym Adren and I plan to keep the dose at 5 until further notice. It will be better tomorrow.
Distance-1.0
3/25-AM. Got about what I expected. Montreat Mile in 10:44 with splits of 5:28-5:16. I doubled the distance and increased the pace by 56 seconds. I'll take that any day. Unfortunately if I am to run this evening, I expect to fare no better unless I take more pills. In fact, I might be worse. Tomorrow's dose will make it better.
PM- I was wrong. Surprisingly, I was significantly better. Repeated the Montreat Mile and my time is down to 9:15. Even pace with a little something left at the end (4:40-4:35). Is the adrenal spike beginning to die down? Tomorrow I will cut the dosage to 4 and attempt to run 2 miles.
Distance-2.0
3/26-AM- Began to feel different yesterday evening. By bed time, I had a strong feeling that the Thym Adren needed to be eliminated altogether. Unfortunately, I had to confirm it.
Opened with an 85 then improved to 81 on NAC and B12. Clearly able to tolerate higher doses thanks to Malic Acid. I may not even need Melatonin going forward. This pace felt sustainable and am confident that I would have been well below 9:15 over a full Mile.
Took just 2 Thym Adren instead of the planned 4 and got an immediate negative reaction. Slipped to 1:50 on the next interval. If I am to run this evening, it will be ugly.
PM- Not as ugly as I expected. Half mile at Montreat in 4:38 (9:16 pace). Figure 9:30ish for a full Mile. The 3rd interval this morning was 11:00 pace. Less than 12 hours later and I am better already. Sadly, I won't be the least bit surprised if I need Thym Adren again next week. Switching back to the modulator is an option.
Distance-1.0
3/27- Well, I know why my system rejected Thym Adren this time. It was the lack of TMG, which I thought I no longer needed. Wrong! As soon as I took it again, the adrenal spike kicked in with a VENGEANCE. Good thing I have an extra bottle in my cabinet.
1 Mile on Lakeshore in 11:58 with splits of 5:50-6:08. This spike won't be going down anytime soon. I may have to raise the dosage. This was done on 5 pills. That's it for today. Probably going to FLA tomorrow. Need to clear my head.
Distance-1.0
3/28- Unplanned rest day. Didn't make it to FLA
3/29- Unplanned rest day.
3/30- Insatiable need for Malic Acid has hit far sooner than I expected.
Opened with a 1:33 then slipped to 1:53 just 1 hour later but another trace of it brought me all the way down to 1:15. It was short-lived. Just a few hours later, I was barely moving for a half mile cool
Distance-1.0
-6 miles
