Alcohol & Running

[IanDarkpeak]

More seriously, there's a long association between decent beer and distance running, especially on the fells. It's about 94% water with electrolytes, vitamin B12 complexes, a decent load of calories and, err, alcohol. It also comes with many centuries worth of social conditioning about relaxation and good company.
You don't get that from a plastic bottle of Tesco's finest spring water.

Last year went for a pub lunch, had steak and kidney pie, chips and three pints of landlord. It sat really heavy in my stomach, then went to Trunce in the evening and smashed my 4 year PB
