Let's stir it up a bit guys and gals. Who here has had pre-race fun before they have had big races. I know it has helped me out before, but then again I have also raced well without "lovin" before the race. What are your thoughts? Is it good? bad? How many days should you stay clear of it before racing?
You race well without "lovin" before the race because you do EVERYTHING withoug "lovin" beforehand!
OH!
Now I know why he's called PRE-FONTAINE.
Just watch the film 'without limits', that's why he got his foot bleeding before competing versus the europeans at that outdoor track.
I just think that every track and field girl and boy should have a secret understanding about hooking up before the races... that is what i am talking about!
But putting aside Prefontaine's foot injury, I think it's GOOD to have a pre race sex, WHY? Here :
1:\Well, we dont know about the other guys, but we know that Pre did this before his race that day.
2:\It's been studied and said that after an intercourse, human body will automatically release a hormone called HGH, isn't that a good thing?
3:\Testicals became smaller after the sperm release, giving more space to thighs to roll, well tell me now, isn't that an advantage over Mr.Big?
4:\Had a peace of mind and good tappering yesterday with your loved ones.
But if you are like that couple from Co, you will give each other Mono.
Just a little for warmup, save the proverbial "load" for the race.
And Pre WON the race with his bleeding feet.
That should proved everything right?
ps: Im starting to make sense in this board I realize.
That's not what really happened to Pre.

So it was in a movie, therefore it must be true? I didn't know Don Kardong was European.
No idea.
They said it's a based-on-true-story movie, so I eat up all the chunks.
I asked one of pre's teamate at the time how he really hurt his foot and he said it was jumping into a pool. Which is how the first pre movie showed it.
My experience: pre race sex helps, post race sex helps, sex during the race really slows you down
I sure as hell hope that you tried it in a mixed gender race.
I didn't say with a competitor!

SFOG- you say from your experience this slows you down. Did you do enough trials? My intuition tells me that it should be very comparable to gallowwalking... You would THINK stopping for a little 'lovin' during a marathon would slow you down, but hey if walking ends up making you finish faster, maybe sex in the middle of a race would too...
Anyone going to test this out further?
I can't believe sports science has neglected this promising research area... I'm sure our own JasonInAsia would be more than willing to try this out, in the name of sports science and the search for ever improving training methods of course.
Any comment Jason?
I just might break down and try the Gallow-sucking and Gallow-f*cking method in my next marathon. I wonder how many times I can finish in this marathon...hmmmm
i'm against it, i say once a month, on the new moon. sex feels great because it channels so much energy through you, and energy feels good, however once you've ejaculated you've lost your glow of awareness and your potential for energy output has dwindled.
badBiz- make sure to let us know how it goes. In the name of science of course.
