    I've actually run some of my fastest times after a night of drinking.

    These days, I don't have to drink to excess to get a hangover. I can feel it after 2 glasses of wine.

    Anyway, I was fine for 3 miles, actually faster than usual on that route, then for to 3 miles and went bleurgh, and had to drug all the way back up the hill in the sun feeling sick. But it was good. It cleared the cobwebs.

    I haven't been drunk in over 20 years, but I do remember do this in the Marine Corps. We would go out drinking and come back to base really late and then have to get up and run. It was partly doing PT drunk, and partly hungover. I don't recommend it. But if you have to, watch your hydration. Before you go to bed, drink about 22oz of water and eat a banana (potassium). That may help you minimize the effect when you get up. Good luck.
