Over due test results

My apologies for not standing behind the sentence "I'll let you know tomorrow" in my last post. I did taste test those fruit infused waters the next day and even though it's been 10 days I can still remember that I was planning on telling you that they were not good. 
I used 2 of the below green tea bags and then added slices from a blood red orange. At first I just added some Truvia for sweetness but that didn't do much to help.

 This was a Cinnamon Strawberry Detox Water that I (of course) found on Pinterest. I wasn't crazy about this one either. The cinnamon made it gritty and even though I only used 1/2 a lime, I still wish I had used even less.
This Raspberry Lime Water received about the same reaction as the other two. No bueno.

Maybe I'm trying too hard and need to dial it back with something more basic. I still drink the Lipton Green Tea, but yesterday I actually just drank a good bit of plain ol' water and never once did I catch myself thinking "Geez this water is bland". But that's not to say that I won't try some other concoction if one presents itself, and if I do I'll be sure to let you know what I think. 

I actually decided to go for a run on Wednesday and much to my surprise I made it 2 miles with ease, so I guess that jump rope theory was right! Usually if I don't run for a month or more then it's basically like starting over, so I was very pleased.
