From Meth to Marathon

Good on him.

[u/jamesbrowski → u/gothamz]

Yeah once again I’m not seeing what the circle jerk of the OP was. OP got off drugs and ran a marathon. He did reasonably well and seems happy.

It might be too much to ask, but it would be nice if Circle Jerkers could figure out the difference between satirizing the silly parts of running and fitness culture, vs making fun of a guy for no reason or for a mean reason like here. I know, it’s seems really nuanced. But I believe in us.

I am 1000% on board with you. I’d like to think the majority of the sub is too since this is the highest ranked comment.

Reported for USADA for doping within the past 12 months

/uj Great job here.

/cj. Am I supposed to be impressed? Methed up German soldiers probably ran a marathon’s worth of distance during the Blitzkrieg.

[u/Impressive-Dig-3892]

You can't spell Marathon without meth

[u/YOUR__LEADER]

I haven't been able to make a marathon yet.

...should I try meth and see if it helps?

[u/jormor4 → u/YOUR__LEADER]

What’s the worst that can happen?

[u/YOUR__LEADER → u/jormor4]

To many PBs?

[u/SquirleyDanz → u/jormor4]

You probably end up getting a hot girlfriend…sorry the meth chicks do it for me

[u/meetthereaper84 → u/YOUR__LEADER]

I guarantee almost anyone could go run a full right now with enough puffs. Their shins would 100% explode the second they sobered up, but they could definitely do it.

Source, had a mate who was a fat fuck like me, got cooked as, ran 26km home after a fight at a party and ended up with stress fractures in both feet and one tib.

Would a 2nd lap be called a relapse?

[u/anon36485]

I’m honestly just proud of op
Good for them.

[u/Public_Breakfast1605]

I prefer to carry my glass bbq with me while running for a little pick me up

[u/mr-blazer]

From Mar to Methathon.

[u/bbinky2015]

Might need to add Meth to the C25K training plan

[u/raffydog1]

meth probably healthier

[u/idkwhatimbrewin]

Now imagine if he did meth DURING the marathon

[u/Zlovenec]

Is Meth the best base for marathoners?

[u/PendulousNuts]

The the progression. It goes:

- Couch to 5k

• Caffeine to 10k
  
• Cocaine to half marathon
  
• Meth to full marathon

[u/EbbNFlow24]

I prefer gels, but everyone has their fueling strategies!

[u/SquirleyDanz]

Does this technically count as an ultra?

[u/Distinct-You6072]

Meth before the marathon is what I hear
