Would any1 else do this or am I just crazy?

[Relenthe]

So i was at the bar last night till around 2am, and we split off to take our cabs home as transit has stopped running. I however ask myself why should I take a cab home? I can just run back.

The path I had to take was 10km from the pub, through downtown core, and home.

All in all The run took me about 80 minutes, I got some exercise, and saved 20$

When I was a poor college student my firends and I used to walk an hour to and from the bars downtown. Didn't run though .

80 minute is pretty poor time for 10km though. I guess being drunk and tired is a valid excuse.

Dude, I gotta give ya props for even being ABLE to run sloshed.

[Ssmooth]

That's hilarious man!! Think I would take the cab

[Hokonoso]

[Cam_Neely]

I've done it before (but not often) after beer league kickball games, already in shorts, tshirt and cross trainers. 2 hours of flip cup and I feel I can run anything. Only about 5k back for me

You must not be American.

Running through most downtown metropolitan neighborhoods at 2 in the morning in this country would likely get you mugged.

[hityawithastick]

Also, in the US everything is so sprawled you need a car to get to the pub in the first place. ^^
Europe is much more compact. *WHICH IS AWESOME*

And in some cases, running through a downtown metropolitan neighborhood at 2 in the afternoon would likely get you mugged... *coughdetroitcough*

Fixed

I have done that many times. Quite that far or that fast? Not necessarily. But yes, I find it quite fun!!

PS I am, sadly, an American.

In the state of Delaware you can be stopped and fined on the street for public intoxication. If you are caught in a park intoxicated you can be fined for violating beverage laws for doing so. If you go and sleep it off in your car, you can still be charged with DUI or DWI. If you for some reason have an issue on the public transit while intoxicated, you can be fined and jailed.

The cab or designated driver is the best option, at least where I am...

I lived on an island for a number of years where no cars were allowed, so we mostly rode our bikes home. I lived only about two miles from our favorite bar, but it was up a huge friggin' hill.

Most nights were fine, but at least one night, I'm peddling, and peddling, and peddling, and I can't get to the top of the hill. I can't figure out what's wrong, but I know I can't peddle anymore because I'm so frackin' worn out. So I stop pedaling. And, lo and behold, I did not start sliding back down the hill...

because I was already laying on my side, having completely fallen over at some point.

I didn't even realize it. I have no idea how long I tried to 'pedal' up that hill.

Long story short - nice work on the run. I'd start doing it every night!

Good thing I never lived in Delaware...

[stoolcannon]

I ran home 3km from the bar in Germany once while I was in the Army. The run was rife with face plants, rolls down grassy slopes and lots of dirt and mud.

Hi. I'm in...Delaware.

I think we traded Detroit for Eretria, an island in the Lesser Antillies and an archapeligo to be named later.

I did exactly this one time, I figured, hey, I probably won't even remember this in the morning so I might as well save the $.
It was about 10km and hilly, no idea how long it took me, probably an hour and a half I suppose.
Good job!

My favourite drinking pub was about 1km from where I was due to play Rugby the following day. I parked my car at the ground and proceeded to hit the pub until 5am in the morning. Stumbled back to my car and slept in it for the night. The coach turned up the next day and I crawled out and got in the good books for being the first to the ground. Got best on ground that game as well. Oh to be 18 again.

What a nasty state.


Here i can grab a beercrate with my friends, go/drive to a nice sea, park or field and have a beer-picknick with your buddies in the summerday. Whenever you want, but you have to be at least 16 to buy the beer.


In fact, sitting in the park and having a beer is a popular afternoon youth activity here. ....




But thats why Germany it known for chaos, anarchy, breakdown of the public order and crime everywhere, because we dont crack down hard on drinking alcohol!
