I’m not sure times are really the point, and certainly not the most recent handful. I’ve never been objectively fast - I’m a big bloke, and have asthma severe enough that I’m on 4 drugs for it daily and was told to shield by my GP/consultant. Plus, I’ve run hundreds of 5kms so cherry picking the last few post-booze outings would say nothing evidential about my original statement, which is that many of my best times ever have been after a big night.
I will offer that my PB was at 9am (Parkrun) after a night on which I drank at least 5 beers, likely more (it was a celebration).
- Spinnaker_ 5y agoOk but 5 beers for a big guy isn't even close to what most people think of as a hangover. We're talking about trying to exercise after 15 beers and 4 hours of sleep.
