Jogging on Cooking Oil shots

[Patient]

I've been using cannabis cooking oil lately and have been very pleased with the results. If this is cool, I'd like to share it with the community and if it's bad, I'd like to know before I hurt myself. So far, there is NO indication of anything bad happening and I've been doing this for more than a month. Here's what I do:

I place an ounce of cannabis cooking oil (which has about a half gram of ground dispensary untrimmed Master Kush cooked into it) into my running bottle (which has a 22 oz. capacity). I then put a table spoon of gatorade mix on top of it (trying to get the oil to saturate with the gatorade). I put in ice cubes to the top of the bottle and fill the remainder with cold water.
I usually take a half ounce shot of the oil, chase it with some more water and head out running asap. Yes, the shot doesn't taste great: but what shot ever tasted great?

You begin your run unaffected by the medicine, so if there's something wrong with you (like an injury), you can feel it, but 20 minutes into your run the first shot will become effective and it will help alleviate minor aches and pains that might arise during the run. Your running motion mixes up the drink (even though the water and the oil don't mix), and as you run, you continually re-fill the bottle (don't pour anything out) which stretches the dosage.

I've run up to 17 miles at a time on this recipe.
The oil in the gatorade should have 240 calories and the half shot adds another 120 calories. The grand total is 360 calories, but on a 17 mile run I burn something like 1,900 calories, so the method is still net negative calories.

Plus, it's just amazing how much further you can run (particularly with an iphone) when it's not as painful and boring. So I highly recommend this. It's healthy and helps counteract the harmful stereotype of marijuana patients who are unproductive and lazy (not that there's anything wrong with that).

caveat: don't engage in any exercise program without consulting a physician, yadda yadda. Only do exercises that you're familiar with because I'm assuming that the analgesic effects of the thc might make you slightly less aware of injuries that might get worse if you continue.

If this is bad for me and I'm missing something, please someone chime in.

Don't know if I could drink it. But eating drinking cannabis is definitely the best ways for you to get the therapeutic effect. It does wonders for my arthritis. Have tried 4 of the arthritis drugs and they are absolutely horrible. Puke my guts out everytime. Now I just eat brownies.:thumbsup:

Right on.

That has been the surprise medical aspect of mj for me - it greatly helps me stick with my workout regimen! Wake & bake/hike & bike, that's the ticket. This morning I meant to finish up with half an hour on the stationary bike but I was so into the tunes I stayed on it for an hour.

Yeah - you are missing something. Tincture, aka green dragon - alcoholic tincture of cannabis. I think that would suit your purposes much better than oil. Check out Master Wu's Green Dragon thread - it's a sticky in the Concentrates subforum.

Oh & the amount of alcohol involved is miniscule - with my stuff, half a teaspoon is a pretty strong dose.

You like having a sort of "drip dose"? I've experimented a fair bit lately with edibles, both oil (well, butter) & tincture, & for me I've found it best to sort of determine where I want to get & take that much all at once - subsequent little doses don't seem to have nearly the effect of the initial dose.

What's your experience?

This is totally fascinating stuff to me these days.
