Re. SPORT BEANS which I introduced before, a friend of mine happened to come to Japan on business, so I asked him to get a red package. Then...
全種類買って来てくれました、ありがとう〜ランディ！

どこで読んだかは忘れましたが、「大会前の一定期間カフェインを抜くと、大会でカフェイン含有の補給食の吸収率がよい、云々…」みたいなことを知って以来、大会1週間前からコーヒー、紅茶、お茶全般は止め、牛乳か豆乳、白湯のみを飲んでいます。

今回もそうして臨み、走行中には5~6粒、他にもカフェイン入のジェルを2つ摂取。すると確かに早めに効いた気がしたのですが…
I did it so this time too, and took five or six of them and two other jello with caffeine. Then it seemed to work sooner than it would, but...
身体はそれなりに疲れているはずなのに帰路でグッタリというわけでもないばかりか、目が異様に冴えてしまいました！
Body should be worn out but I didn't feel it much on a way back to home, and my eyes were so wide open!
う〜ん、今回は過剰摂取？ でも熱いお風呂でやっと眠気が来ましたとさ。めでたしめでたし。
Well, I have to say I got overdosed? Hot bath made me knocked down though.
