re: Official Running Log/Marathon Training Thread

Whoa, I just googled the nutrition info on a 12 oz red bull out of curiosity - one can has 38g of sugar. That's a frick ton. From your post, sounds like that's at least 76g of added sugar a day, maybe over 100g of added sugar if you add the third can. Start there and substitute black coffee or a caffeine pill if you have to have the pick me up. I have to imagine you'd feel better making that switch alone.

I'm not gonna tell anybody how to live their life, but, if you could cut back on a few of those fri-sat beers, you'd likely have more energy to put in a few more miles on the weekend. Most of us with work and families are weekend warriors anyway. More free time to log miles on the weekend.
