Evening Weight Training

10x500m (fail)

Workout fail. Should have known though, I started a ketogenic diet three days ago in another desperate attempt to lower my bodies inflammation levels to curb my chronic sinusitis/post nasal drip that I’ve been plagued by for a year next month. Can’t sleep unless I drug myself and I can’t work unless I drug myself with nasal decongestants that last about 2 hours before I have to take another one. 

I’ve been to my GP many times, and an ENT recently, many antibiotics, every type of steroid nasal sprays, Neti pots, you name it I’ve tried to get relief and nothing works. 

Any time I run I’m constantly coughing up mucus, and especially at higher paces, which usually leaves me gasping for air while trying to maintain a certain pace. 

So zero glycogen stores had me feeling pathetic on this workout attempt, I’m going to try to stick to this diet for a few weeks to see if it helps, but I don’t have high hopes, and I now recognize that it will definitely hinder my run training for the time being lol.

If anyone has any tips for this condition,
I will literally try ANYTHING. 

Thanks for listening to my Ted talk.
