Running tomorrow after a few drinks tonight?

Training for 10k race and I am supposed to run 6.4k tomorrow. The trains back home today were all cancelled/severely delayed so ended up having a few drinks with colleagues today. I know it was foolish. Any tips? Just lots of water and try to get through it? Inspire me or I'll end up not going!!

Oh thanks! You made me feel a bit better! Sitting on the train back now feeling a bit guilty. Went away last weekend so didn't do my long run on Sunday do this week I wanted to stick to the plan...

You'll be fine.

If I never ran the day after I had had a few drinks I would hardly ever run!

I especially like running the next morning if I have had more to drink on a Friday night than usual, makes me feel like I am getting rid of all those horrible toxins.

I am also a hasher, (a running club with the tagline 'drinkers with a running problem'). We meet once a week at a pub, run around following a flour trail for an hour or so which leads us to a bear stop, most of the runners drink a few pints, and then we carry on our run! Grin I don't drink then though, as I don't like beer.

I like the idea of drinkers with a running problem! I had a look for a club near me but none of them are that close. (And some of them seem to only do the drinking without the running!)
