Reading Dr Phil's book it transpires one needs to follow this through for months, even years, to see major improvements. I'll complete the fortnight but I can see I'll be back to breathless flogging, or Twitten Running, as we call it, sooner rather than later.
The dietary experiment continues. My only carb intake is from fruit and vegetables (no spuds, fries or associated starch monsters) and one beer (bottle, not print) per day. A man has to have a beer after a day on show site, as I am now here in Rotterdam. I've cut out bread, rice, pasta and cereals and limited my milk intake to almost zero. My digestive system is in uproar, but I'll ride this out to see if things settle down. Can't say I feel too much in the away of extra energy yet, but it really is early doors for me.
In happier news I'm enjoying my reunion with red wine. Last night's Argentinian Malbec was fabulous.
Milk doesn't have carbs in it? It has masses of glorious proteins and much needed fats. It's the best thing you can drink as a runner (well it's second in the queue after a crisp cold Pale Ale).
Me and Radar ran 12.5 miles this morning - taking in the beauties of Caburn and Firle. I'm completely buggered.
