COFFEE...

Ha Ha - it seems I can’t do anything until I have my morning cup of joe!  Especially any physical exercise! Runners love a cup of pre-race or pre-run java for the pep it puts in their step. Research shows that the caffeine in coffee can enhance physical endurance and stamina, making a long run or ride feel easier.  Try it iced or hot a half hour before any activity, but if it upsets your stomach, push it back to an hour. Not crazy for coffee? Iced or hot green tea works too. Feel free to add milk, but skip the sugar, which can negate the caffeine kick.
