Mayan Chocolate Tea (click to go to website)
This is the best pre-run drink I have had in 14 1/2 years of running. I just finished my 9th consecutive week of running 100 miles per week (November 15th to now). By far this was my toughest work week, with two of the five days 12 hours+. I tried this tea with the intent of just looking for an alternative to coffee, to mix it up. What I discovered was a surge of energy within 30 seconds of drinking it, and endurance through the run and the work day. It didn't cause a spike and my heart was as calm as when I am watching TV. The cayenne pepper gives it a unique tinge that wakes you up and it kick starts your metabolism.
