OK - so a boys boozy night out in town on Friday night - (but I had done a track session beforehand, so that cancels out the bad - doesn't it).
Next morning - 4 hours sleep later - manage to get to the gym - 30mins on the bike, seems OK, treadmill beckons to me, and I haven't thrown up yet, so that looks good.
Start off with no real intent, and end up less than 20mins later having covered 5k in (for me) record time - especially as I was running intervals too.
Is this a cunning plan for future events ? And if I'd got really plastered - would that mean I could get through a Marathon without noticing ?

The moral of this is this... booze is good for you
Always find that the evening after a heavy lunchtime session I run reasonable well.
Guilt ? or hop loading ?
We were supposed to have a couple of sociable drinks whilst watching a rugby final so at the very most 2 and a half hours were planned - unfortunately being surrounded by Irishmen whose team had just lost - how could we let them drown their sorrows alone?!
Of course, RW would need to cover my expenses - this beer thing is more expensive than all those lovingly crafted Isotonic drinks !
Ashamed as I am I got a bit bladdered Friday, Saturday and Sunday night (one of those rare weekends when all festivities collide) and I didn't do very well in training, I felt a bit tired and sorry for myself (and I don't think the same applies to Vodka Black Ice). But I have enjoyed nice beer fuelled Saturday morning runs before, (in those experiments it was many bottles of Bud.)
So lager and cider are both good. (but probably not combined)
Vodka Black Ice - bad.
What else is good for PB's ?
I expect this thread will be squashed soon by the Legal Dept of Lucozade.
Imagine the ads = buy a crate load of Budweiser and the PB is in the bag !
I've been doing this wrong for months.
I'll get blootered on Friday and see what the legs'll do for me.
What's the worst that can happen?
Assuming it is Prague that I recognise in your picture, you should go back there for the experiment. Really excellent beer at negligible prices.
Perhaps we should all get together for a session before the next Prague marathon? :-)
Don't all those old bridges look the same?
:-)
I did meet up with RatBag, Sterling, Snoop,Jon & a few others the night before the event, but foolishly just chose Orange to drink. I know better for next time.
Form has gone off today for next year. 7 months to arrange the beer !
