I have been for 4 long saturday runs now (>18miles). Had a few Coronas on the Friday night before for the first 3 and they were great. Decided to be 'good' for the 4th and stay home the night before....and it was a real struggle! So it works!

We're all agreed then !
The odd drop of alcohol doesn't adversely affect performance the following day
That does it - am off down the pub straight after work

Cavehill - Perhaps it was at that dinner party you filled in your NY marathon application and entered a 4hr finish time!!

SLOW RAMBLER
Jigs... C75 will be kicking himself at 4 hours.... he sprinted by me recently with no a bead of sweat on his fair brow identifying me from the (my) rear!!!
Personally I SWEAR by a bevvie the night before... I've knocked HUGE amounts off my pb's after a beer or wine the night before and have surprised myself with the amount of time taken off! I took half an hour off a marathon pb, then a few weeks later another couple of bottles of beer before the next marathon and took a further 17 minutes off.... on the race eves I've been good... the races have been DRASTIC!!!! Including a few personal worsts!!!
enjoy a beeer! (Don't get drunk... just on the verge of tipsy will do the trick!)

LOL ABMM, yeah, I still don't know how I recognised you. Must have been those flowing locks...LOL.
Superwoman, if you know some decent restaurants in NY, might be better going there on Sat night for some pasta/carbs? The places I posted on the article were recommended by an old school friend who lives in NY. But I haven't seen him in 15 years. If you've been somewhere good, might be better off going there, no?
That Mi Dona place looks central however.
Happy to go with the flow.
