Any runners who use Cannabis?

Edibles get expensive but there is no downside at all (other the 10% Bioavailability vs smoking which is 30%). Im thinking of possible running the Vermont 50 and they would frown on smoking during the race. I loved the Volcano when it came out, dry vape, maybe one of those cool pipes that are rechargeable. Im going to look on f bay right now.

I’ve been infusing coconut oil and then putting it in gelcaps. Far easier to dose than many edibles and more cost effective.
 
Yea a 10ml (100mg thc) tincture bottle costs 17 bucks from the dispensary. I was going to put it into my water bottle but Harvest76 that is a freakin awesome idea. The coconut oil doesn't dissolve the gel caps?

That wasn't my idea, but I'm curious about that too! I always just make gummies, but saving that step and just using the oil would be great. Where do you even buy gel caps?

The only time I’ve had issues is when the oil is too hot. I use a 5ml glass dropper and a cap’em quick tray, and toss them into the fridge until they set back up as a solid.

I love the gelcaps. No sugar added, you can get gelatin or vegetarian capsules and they can be made in all different sizes for ease of dosing. I typically get mine from Here I’ve found that one ounce of material to 1 cup of coconut oil is the sweet spot. I use a magical butter machine to make mine. The effects typically last 8+ hours. So many options. My favorite and most potent is a sativa mix of agent orange and hazelnut. I also make high cbd capsules using Deadlights.
 
I used to hit a bong and then get on the rowing machine/ erg. Just lose yourself in the rhythm and music and sweating. So epic, same goes for running. That rhythm and breathing pattern, then once you hit that sweet spot and just keep cruising. WOOOO

What size gel cap do you use?
 
Ok now I read you put Kratom powder in the bottom of the gel cap which the gel cap is absorbed by. But further reading has come up with this idea, DIY gummies out of tincture.

Im thinking I need to start making my own concentrate oils again but this time out of everclear. How cool is this medicine reserved for the elite and we have this, and it works, we can make it ourselves. Phuck big Pharma.

I just harvested 2 CBD Green Poisons, both hermied and were full of seeds. Shit genetics!.:cuss:

That said, I still got 225 grams from them, not including the few grams of Kief I got from the trim, and the other 3 plants I had didnt seem affected, so those 2 shit plants will all go to making oil. Lemons make good lemonade!
 
Edibles and trail running = :D

I recently started running again. A back injury had me somewhat sedentary for quite a while, and I found that my lungs have been the hardest part to bring back into shape.
Running on edibles seems to cause a smoother gait - and/or relieves my knees & hips enough that I enjoy running again. And of course just being out on a trail is fun with any cannabis! As for the lungs, they're coming back slowly - getting old sucks...

As I think on it - I probably don't carry myself as stiffly as when un-medicated - therefore a smoother, more efficient gait that's easier on the joints and lungs, but no loss of coordination as with other meds or alcohol.

DO NOT TRY THIS AT HOME
I cannot in good conscience say that either of the below is "safe", or recommend trying either of the activities below. bongsmilieBUT...
Surfing (a lung sport) has long been associated with pot for good reason. :bigjoint:
Diving is a blast with edibles too - slowly flying through the kelp forest while it bends and sways in the current...:eyesmoke:

Dude! That sounds amazing! Can you recommend a good surfing or diving spot near central illinois? ;)
 

There's a few big wave spots in the lakes too - I watched video of solid 10ft!

I hear the diving is really cool too - a lot of wrecks to explore.

All true. Deaths door in Door County Wisconsin has plenty of wreckage. I've never seen waves that big on Michigan, but some pretty damned close around Sheboygan in really bad weather. Here in central Illinois, putting on a nice smile and kayaking up a densly shaded lazy creek is the best we get, and it's pretty amazing.
 
I get the surfing thing, look at towns like Santa Cruise the whole town smokes pot. Snowboarding you float on powder flying down a 70 degree pitch effortlessly. Balance controls everything, maybe herb make you more sensitive but I seem more connected.

It's a connectedness. Reconnecting the brain to our very basic oneness with the earth. We are animals, after all, and we forget that. Cannabis helps us remember.

Iv met only a handful of people who puff and run. Apparently Im supposed to watch TV and eat Chinese food.
Iv heard that the neurotransmitters for running are very similar to THC (every incarnation). Feel good brain chemistry to reward one from escaping from lion or running after a woolly mammoth.

Eatings gotta be the best Iv found but vaping or smoking (not ideal) is more practical. Just was curious about experiences other runners may have had.

OK, gotta ask - how does the sour candy fit in? Cotton mouth prevention?

Just finished my personal fave - 1/2 cup coffee, 2 solid bong rips; 2 mile flat track (neighborhood). The reward comes while having my oatmeal and second cup of coffee --- tough to find a better start to the day!

Hope everyone else is having a good one too! :bigjoint:
