<p>Btw - i think I suck at blogging. I just don't know what to say. and yes, I've only done it 2x. I have been tapering and not adding much to my fitness routine, hence the silence</p>

<p><strong>Q: How will OPTYGEN-HP help me race better?</strong><br>
A: OPTYGEN-HP is designed to help you through your most intense training and racing and will dramatically improve your training and recovery. The OPTYGEN-HP formula is based on the latest human clinical research. The research has shown the following endurance benefits.</p>
<p>-Increases Endurance and Performance</p>
<p>-Increased strength</p>
<p>-Reduces Lactic Acid</p>
<p>-Increases oxygen utilization</p>
<p>-Increase in VO2 Max</p>
<p>-Increase in Time to Exhaustion</p>
<p>-Increases Anaerobic threshold</p>
<p>-Improved exercise capacity</p>
<p>-Increases Maximal Oxygen uptake</p>
<p>-30% - 50% increase in Oxygen Utilization</p>
<p>-Increase ratio of ATP by 45% - 55%</p>
<p>-Enhances Endurance</p>
<p>-Increase in ATP production<br>
</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Sounds like crap I know but honestly, the past few races have gone so great I am thinking there is something to this stuff. I mean, that 5K was my best by almost a minute on a hard course during training and I never felt like I was going to die like I do in most 5ks (the raced ones). I have never had a 5k I haven't <strong>WANTED</strong> to stop SO freaking BAD..with every fiber of my being.</p>

<p><strong>Mindi</strong> - Buzzard Billy's eh? I just might have to. We are staying at Fort Des Moines and there is a brew pup right next to it too so we might end up there after the race and showering.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>We have 4 people doing the full and here are the goals</p>
<p>Guy C - 2:55 I think</p>
<p>Chick B - 3:10</p>
<p>Me - 3:50 (but I've been visualizing 3:48 hard)</p>
<p>Chick A - 4:45</p>
<p> </p>
<p>So, there is a lot of dead time there where beer may be drank in celebration or frustration. I am hoping for the former.</p>

<p><strong>Melis</strong> - DH already test drove one...we're in deep</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Oh yeah - ran 3 last night - felt good</p>
Hey, where is your blog, btw?</p>
