Martinis make you run faster.


OK - it's official. New Year's Eve at the Cavalier again this year, and the Hair of the Dog 5K the next day. Hmmmmm - last year I posted a PR at the Hair of the Dog after imbibing in chocolate martinis the night before. Is there a direct correlation between the number of drinks consumed and the speed at which I run?


I intend to find out.

IS that right? You know, that's interesting because my fastest looooong training run for this 1/2 was the day after a Halloween party, and Martinis were the drink of choice. And I was "tired" enough at the end of the party that I, um, "fell asleep" in full make up, so I ran with curled hair as dark as ebony, lips as red as blood, skin as pale as a hangover, and eyes rimmed in last nights mascara. What a lovely image that must have been for my fellow runners.
Hair of the dog huh? I may have to look into that.
