Mo Farah reveals he used to party 3 nights a week and the party nights at uni were Saturday, Wed. and Monday. Is that right?

Yeah GQ doing a fluff piece. Crazy!

^… this is the correct response.

When I was in college in England we trained our asses off but party nights were generally Sunday through Saturday

One reason I think I ran so much better in the USA..although I trained less

he's not a real journalist, he just plays one on the internet

TBF he's muslim so the "partying" would have been everyone around him drinking 10 pints and a kebab, and him with a half of Coke. (not that coke).

Okay

Often uni students have a half day on Wednesdays - traditionally the afternoon is used for sport and there can be races on that day. Saturday is self-explanatory. Monday is always the cheapest night for drinks (things like 99p shots) as they want to get people in after the busy weekend.

Sounds about right. Wednesday was always Sports Fed night - the venue was given over to the sports clubs to get hammered. It's usually dominated by rugby boys called Toby wearing women's clothes. Monday was cheap drinks night

Ed sings "potty" not "party."

She'd been to Africa and came back with a parasite. Spent months on the toilet.

Makes sense, at my liberal arts school, the party nights are Monday, Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday

T-Th classes are not as important as M-W-F classes.

Also it depends on what nights the bars have specials.

I know some state schools stopped holding Friday classes because the students went out partying on Thursday nights because they went home on weekends.

Can we define “party”? He drank beer at a frat house? Or are we taking about getting drunk? He got drunk three nights a week? Why should anyone care about someone getting drunk? Shouldn’t we care more about getting them into AA?

It’s just ‘humble brag’ trying to make out he was a ‘normal guy’ who pulled himself up,he was on an elite endurance running scholarship at St Mary’s that involved virtually zero courses to be taken.He would of been utterly utterly bored out of his skull other than the training sessions,the college has a genuine student body [sports science and teacher training]that as has been mentioned would of had Wednesday afternoons off for sport so yeah he either had a few drinks with the rugby gang at the lovely riverside pubs 2min from college once or twice or got the bus into nearby Kingston to go to the mad clubs which are like a zoo and you’d get threatened with a glass to the face for looking at someone’s girlfriend which would definitely offer a student discount on some nights ,there is no way he was getting slaughtered 3 nights a week for years on the trot he would of gone to ‘Oceans’ once and never returned unless he liked the kind of coke that doesn’t come in a glass .The suburb [Teddington]had a colony of African distance runners independent of the college as both Richmond and Bushy parks were v v close and Heathrow airport was close for travel ,they were said to be totally professional by the staff at the SweatShop running shop in Teddington who said the runners highlight of the day was cooking maize dishes from back home

Monday night is sin night and Wednesday night is dollar drinks at one place and $10 sink or swim at another. Rojo, You’re incredibly boring and unfunny. It’s no surprise that you don’t know the good party nights. Taco Tuesday is self explanatory. Foam Thursday’s are legendary. And of course HOB sundays. Friday and Saturday? Those are for the poseur weekend warriors.

In large cities there will usually be a club that has a student night every night from Mon-Thu - mass appeal middle of the road music, cheap booze (50p for vodka redbull back in my day!) The Student Union at the Uni will have its own nights at the weekend, when going into town gets expensive.

Mo was at St Mary’s - attracted a huge number of distance runners on UK, but relatively low conversion rate for the volume of talent they had. Too much of a party culture where being amongst the best in the UK was enough when they had no excuse not to be aiming for far bigger things. There were a few success stories… Andrew Osage springs to mind.

Isn't this guy a mozlem! They can't drink alcohol according to islam.

Exactly.

I wonder how much a guy who weighs nothing and is constantly tired from training can drink.

1-2 beers?
