The Master Cleanse

I'm on day 10 of the Master Cleanse. It's also called the lemonade diet. It's 10 days of drinking a mixture of lemon juice, maple syrup and cheyanne pepper and NOTHING ELSE!!. I can't believe I haven't eaten anything solid for 10 days. The funny thing is I feel great and have tons of energy. I slept like a baby too. It's all about cleansing the toxins out of your body. I can feel it. I also lost about 10 lbs as well. This is my last day so tomorrow I can actually drink orange juice, then the next day drink vegetable broth, then the next day eat vegetables. I got to ease myself back into solid foods. I'm going to do this twice a year. I'm using it as a spring board into a healthier raw food diet. Good times!! peas.

Dublin Marathon Post-Race

Brutality is the word. Cold, clear and windy. Sweat froze on my body. Not enough layers. Hypothermic at the half way point. Too much alcohol and not enough water in the days leading up to the race. But hey, I was in Ireland. I walked for about 10 miles. Lesson learned. Next race; Rock n Roll Marathon, San Diego, June 1, 2008. Already running.
