Just finished run 2 of week 5. Feel good and my pace/distance are increasing without realising it. Looking forward to the next one..........
I’ve had a wired experience though while running and that is my sweat smelling of ammonia. I realise this occurs with people who are restricted diets, but like I’ve said before, I will change my diet after I’ve nailed the running. I was up at 2am and have had 2 meals and snacks/drinks like normal. Should I eat more cake?? Any ideas??

If you're cutting carbs on a temporary basis it should go away when you are consuming more carbs but I would definitely be hot on hydration, and look to increase your fluid intake too.
Wow that's really interesting reading. Thanks for sharing that.
Thanks. I will have a read. I would say my fluids for the day so far are about 2 litres, but that’s less than normal
If it were me, given that it's a sign your kidneys can't deal with the urea, I'd be trying to keep it closer to 4l. I usually manage 3 anyway.
Doesn't seem to be a serious issue though so don't worry too much.
I’ve gone over 3 litres with post run drink and shake. Will probably hit 5 litres by bedtime
That's great. Watch the colour too, monitor any darker days or weird colours not explained by say beetroot or butternut etc.
😂 I was reading that earlier. I think I tick the boxes. I eat plenty of everything (and my partner’s leftovers!)
Hmmm, if you're not carb cutting I might see the GP then in case it's a sign of kidney issues...
If you saw what I eat, you would wonder why I’m only 15 stone.
I know we were talking about forks over knives, I still haven’t watched it yet, it’s in my library to watch, but I watched Explained: the future of meat. Some interesting points in that too.
I've been watching them all, so far nothing has made me question my decision to cut it all. And actually I eat even more now which suits me! 🤣🐽
