oh and re. Joss, I don't reckon he supped that much Guinness during his racing days - I reckon the reality is he probably had two pints down the Ritsons bar at the end of a hard week's work as a treat and that was probably it.

Hmmm, now you mention it I was wondering when I'd start to see the benefit of this JN diet. I thought this extra eleven stone I've put on in the last six months was just fuel for the medium and long races but I'm starting to doubt its credentials...Originally Posted by ZootHornRollo

and I've got to admit I was always a bit disappointed that Joss is a Guinness man, when he has the Great Gable brewery on his doorstep ....

I believe a few pints of real ale is beneficial for a run the next day, because it gives me beer energy
Not to mention the good feeling endorphins drinking the beer induces, thus giving a positive mood, which in turn helps you achieve greater objectives, which could be running faster and longer
I strongly believe there isn't many other good feelings that come close to doing a long day on the fells, then getting stuck into your first pint of decent ale....it is pure satisfaction
Dont feel left out, ask if you can join them for a pint or two.
I agree with ukhursty, nothing like a good long run in the hills or a tough race followed by a some real ale, which doesnt equate to problem drinking.
Actually I think its a bit of a problem.
A few times now whilst on a hard run, the beer in my bottle has fizzed up and cause it to leak into my race sack.

well said! Drinking ale after runs is an entirely different matterI strongly believe there isn't many other good feelings that come close to doing a long day on the fells, then getting stuck into your first pint of decent ale....it is pure satisfaction
Occasionally, one of my bottles falls over in the back of the car, disturbing the yeast sediment, but I can't say it's a major problem.
And, amazingly, I've found an American who agrees with the drift of this thread:

And as for Hashing:
The Constitution of the Hash House Harriers is recorded on a club registration card dated 1950:
To promote physical fitness among our members
To get rid of weekend hangovers
To acquire a good thirst and to satisfy it in beer
To persuade the older members that they are not as old as they feel
