I'll have to write this first week off as a loss.
4/13- Opener in 96. Real workout was 1.5 miles in 16:21 (10:54 pace). Added a 1/3 mile cool that might as well have been a walk. Didn't expect to set the world on fire today but certainly expected better than this. Culprit identified this evening. Wait for it: Stand alone Cal. That's right. The very stuff that mitigated the ill- effects of B6. PISSED!!
Distance-2.0
4/14- Forced rest day. Confirmation dose made it worse. Needed caffeine to be functional at work and now I will face withdrawal.
4/15AM- Opener in 1:42 but did a little better in the real workout. 1 Mile in 9:39 plus a cool. May try for more this evening.
PM- 1.5 miles in 13:54 (9:16 pace). Under the Mendoza line but I don't think I can hold it. Decent leg power but easily winded. Splits were 6:53-7:01 but I didn't slow down much after the first half mile.
Distance-3.0
4/16- Opened with a 96 and closed with an 80. Better numbers than yesterday but something didn't feel right. Got worse as I approached Lakeshore and had NOTHING!
Culprit was lack of Malic Acid. I may not need methylation anymore but I can't get away with more than 5-7 days without this stuff. Stupid on my part. Got home and clocked a 69 despite sore muscles. I'll see if I can quit methylation but I really should have known that I still need Malic Acid.
Distance-1.0
