Summary

Many of us enjoy nothing more than a cold beer on a hot day or a strong drink after a long work shift. 

However, what impact, if any, does this have on our training and racing goals? Obviously, you're not drinking beers before you run, so is there any detriment?

The research and answers may surprise you.

In today's uptempo talk, Coach Dylan and Coach Ruairi are going to dive into the pros and cons of alcohol consumption on your running and even discuss the beer mile along the way.
