Getting ready to start.

Hi everyone,
I plan on starting the Master-Cleanse on April 30 and am both nervous and excited. I am running a marathon on April 25 and I don't want to do anything different before the marathon. My chiropractor indicated that I might make sure day three is on the weekend so I can avoid people if the smell is too bothersome to me. She says she can smell meat on someone a mile away on day three and its disgusting. So I am starting on a Friday and will have the weekend to settle into the fast.
A couple of questions:
1. I want to continue to run between 3-7 miles a day. Does anyone have any feedback on the feasibility of this plan given the change in diet? I currently run this amount daily.
2. What are the biggest hurdles to the fast and how did you manage them?
3. Did you experience unusual irritability? (I don't want to make people hate me!)
Thanks so very much for your help.

This is a reply to # 183,065I want to start on Monday April 26. I'm starting small by planning on only doing 5 days along w/ the 4 days to come off it. I'm excited about starting b/c I've gained a lot of weight over the past few months & I'm really not looking forward to the summer feeling uncomfortable w/ my body.
I am Female / 5'1 / 140 lbs. I have been exercising regularly over the past 3 months but I haven't seen the results I'm looking for - I also just feel like a good detox will be good for me.
I'd be interested in tracking progress with you.- Re: Getting ready to start. Christielynn

This is a reply to # 183,076I plan to start on Friday April 30. I wanted day three to fall on the weekend since my chiropractor indicated this is the hardest day. I may start on the 29th of April.

Google AdvertisementThis is a reply to # 183,032Generally speaking most hurdles are over in two to five days and are mostyly due to toxins being stirred up for removal - including headaches, heartburn, nausea, hazy mind, feeling tired...and then there's really wanting to eat which passes for me by day three or four. Personally, I get a much more calm and happy disposition during cleansing (once you've gotten past the initial hurdles of craving food)
As far as running I've included a post from a fellow MCer regarding running. You can view all her messages once you've found one (on page7 or 8 of this forum I think) She started out a liitle less energised but, as you can see, got progressively better. Read on:

Wow. Day 13 is over and I went for another run today, improving yet again (25% since my last run and 400% since before I started the fast!).
Other improvements have surfaced as well:
-my skin has cleared from its Acne and is smoother
-my hair seems silkier
-my eczema seems to be fading
-I'm a lot calmer at work (a highly stressful environment)
-my eyes are brighter
-I'm a lot less tired (was exhausted all the time before)
and I've lost 13 pounds
