UPDATE: Another attempt to return to steady training. It seems like I can tolerate Coke but not Red Bull. That really doesn't make sense. A 20 oz Coke has more sugar and almost as much caffeine.
5/22- AM- 1.5 miles on north Lakeshore in 17:24 (11:35 pace). OUCH. It's been nearly 48 hours since I had an energy drink and I'm still going through withdrawal.
PM- MUCH better. 2.5 miles on South Lakeshore in 23:42 (9:29 pace) in spite of drinking a 16 oz Coke (actually Pepsi) but it's southern lingo. I don't understand why this is happening but I'm going to roll with it until the end of the week then try to eliminate the Coke.
Distance=4.0
5/23- 3 miles on North Lakeshore in 28:18 (9:26 pace). The goal is gradual but steady improvement from this point forward. I was only marginally better today. I did add a half mile and this route has more hills than yesterday so not bad. I did hope to see a little better. Again, no energy drinks but I have been drinking Coke. Even pace despite the back half being mostly uphill.
Distance=3.0
5/24- 2x1 mile on South Lakeshore. 1st mile was 9:57, 2nd mile was 9:27. I was BETTER after drinking a Coke. Yesterday, I felt like I was over-stimulated and thought I needed more Thym-Adren. I probably overdid it a bit. I was weakened but not disabled, which is what should happen. The stimulation from the caffeine probably HELPED. If my dose was too low, caffeine probably makes things worse.
Distance=2.0
- 3 miles of junk running the rest of the week.
- 10 miles total.
Took a Memorial Day road trip. Interesting findings along the way.
I became intolerant to alcohol then later intolerant to Coke.
BUT when I increased the Probiotic dosage, it was better.
