Training 6/8-6/14

 This is what I am up against.  I got an increased demand for Paramin, which triggered the need for B12, which was only tolerated in small doses prior to this.  Ouch!

6/8- The usual pattern.  Initial positive reaction to B12, which turned negative overnight.  When the shock fades, I will have an insatiable need for it.

I was still in the negative phase this morning.  Quit after 2 laps on the track with a time over 6 minutes.

Distance-0.5

Insatiable need kicked in by the afternoon.

6/9- 1 Mile on New Lakeshore in 10:50. Splits were 5:34-5:16.  Had to drink a Red Bull this afternoon because I couldn't stay awake at work.  Extra B12 would have been a better choice.

Distance-1.0

6/10- 2 miles in 20:17 (10:09 pace).  Painful but it was a big improvement over yesterday.  Splits were 10:07-10:10.  Very over-stimulated but the need for B12 may be starting to diminish.  Red Bull again today then I go off.  Just hope I don't have major withdrawals.

Distance-2.0

6/11- Collapse.  Quit after just a tenth of a mile and have no idea.

6/12- Still looking for answers.  Found it.  The B12 is still very necessary but it must be taken AFTER the Paramin during the day.  What the.  ------!  If I get the order wrong, I am worthless.

Distance-0.5

6/13- Made the adjustment.  1 Mile in 11:36 with splits of 5:56-5:40.  Felt better as the day progressed.  

Distance-1.0

6/14- 2 miles on New Lakeshore.  Finished in 19:52 (9:56 pace).  This route is a bit more rolling than the one I normally do. Splits were 9:55-9:57.  Can't say that I am pleased but it was a lot better than yesterday.

Distance-2.0

7 miles on the week
