+1.5 miles of sprinting and pausing.. sprinting and pausing....
+3 hill runs up and down

throw up tummy feeling


Its been 4 days since my last loner run (a run while not at track practice)... and boy did I need that run.
and BOY could i tell its been a while since I have pushed myself :)

my legs are jello
my brain is clear
my tummer is great (now)
and
i am destressed and ready for the day!

I have been doing great on the no table sugar or hfcs for a while. Last week was great. Saturday I felt low after our track meet and had a coke when we went to get a burger with some of the team .... Since then.. nothing. So.. day 4 with no sugar or hfcs.

I have found a few things via the web you might find interesting.
the first is this video about artificial sweetners: click here



the next is about mcdonalds happy meal

and all this led me back to my reason for never eating at mcdonalds again... convenced of this after I watched Super Size Me

No sugar HFCS thing.......I have declared a challenge to my self. NO sodas, NO table sugar (cookies, cakes, pies, donuts, etc) until Thanksgiving. Thats 6 weeks. After that .. challenge until Christmas.
