5/16- NOT GOOD. 2.5 miles on Lakeshore in 22:50 (9:08 pace). Better than yesterday but I hoped to get a sub-9 pace. It appeared that I had a shot until the last half mile then I faded badly. Splits- 9:05-8:59-4:46. Adrenals have spiked and the Inositol will not be enough. Thym-Adren did help but even that didn't hold.
PM- Found the culprit. Too much TRS. I need to slow down the detox sprays. Hated intervals at Montreat. Opened with a 76 then slipped to an 89 after 5 sprays of TRS. Bounced back with a 79 after B12 so that's not hurting me. Neither is Liver. I should donate blood again soon but I don't think it should have much impact this time around.
Distance=3.0
5/17-AM. 3x1 lap at Montreat. Opened at an abysmal 4:13. Only slightly better on Inositol (4:05) and showed similar improvement on B12 (3:58). Overall time of 12:16. OUCH! Only taken together was it enough to be considered significant. Question is: Can I tolerate small amounts of TRS or do I need to stop it temporarily? I'll find out in a couple days.
PM- 1 mile at Montreat in 10:02. Splits 5:12-4:50. Much better than the morning but certainly no cause for celebration. I will lay off the TRS for a few days then try to gradually re-introduce it.
Distance=2.0
5/18-AM Beyond awful. 1 mile in a time over 13 minutes. It is painfully obvious that I need the TRS.
PM- I was better immediately after just 1 spray. Opened with a 2:28 quarter mile. 1 spray brought my down to a 2:11, 1 more- 1:54, 1 more- 1:42 BUT 2 more yielded a 1:59. I need an EXACT number of sprays to feel decent. If there is one scenario that I HATE, it is this one. I don't like being locked into a pill or spray every day but if the dose is flexible, I can deal with it. NOT THIS! I had 0.75 miles after the last interval and treated it like a cool down.
Distance=3.0
5/19- Opened with a 1:57 then improved to 1:42 then 1:30. Took just 1 spray in between. On mega doses, I repeated the 1:30 then improved to 1:18 on Inositol and Thym-Adren. Got home and found that I needed more TRS. The difference is probably more consistent use of Intrinsic Factor.
Distance=1.0
5/20- 2 miles on Lakeshore in 19:08 (9:34 pace). Back on mega doses of TRS. It only works if I take all the B-vitamins that I need. Steady pace all the way. Splits were 9:35-9:33.
Distance=2.0
5/21- HORRIBLE again. Hoped to run 3 today and settled for 1 in 10:21. First half was similar toy yesterday but I could feel a massive fade coming so I turned around. Splits- 4:47-5:34. Culprit: Lack of Inositol. Later learned that too much is just as bad. I need some sort of ratio of TRS/Inositol. I HATE THIS!!!!
Distance=2.0
5/22- THIS IS NUTS! Intervals at Montreat
Opener- 1:50 (11:00 pace)
2 sprays of TRS- 1:28 (8:48 pace)
4 sprays of TRS- 1:10 (7:00 pace)
6 sprays of TRS- 1:14 (7:24 pace)
1 Inositol- 1:00 (6:00 pace)
2 Inositol- 1:12 (7:12 pace)
2 extra TRS- 0:55 (5:30 pace)
I felt the best I have all year on that last interval. Unfortunately, it didn't last. I needed more TRS later on in the day. I think I'm going with 5 sprays and 1 Inositol. The more Inositol that I take, the more TRS is required. The more TRS that I take, the more Inositol is required. It's a RATIO that allows me to feel best. I HATE THIS!!!!
Distance=1.0
- 14 miles.
