It might if there's cushion for pushin because strength for race may be lacking afterwards

Your affect will will show a smile on your face.
If you do not use the proper protection you may be in for a lifetime of negative monetary effects. The affect could be severe to your budget.
I've always thought it was bad because after having sex you are very satisfied. That doesn't carry over well with going out there and racing hard against people.
An orgasm (including foreplay) is estimated to burn about 500 calories, so I can't see it having a very deleterious effect on performance.

I recommend not racing hard. It is embarrassing and painful.
Right. And if you don't have sex you may end up racing hard.

Yes, no, maybe, who cares? How important is the race, how good is the sex?
This thread is useless without pics.

How many calories does it take to race 800m, or 400m, and how would that affect subsequent races (later that day, or the next day)?

I call BS. There is no way you could possibly burn than many calories in 45 seconds.
But seriously, you would have to be going at it pretty heavy for like two hours to have even a remote chance of burning 500 calories.
It always affects me. Usually the day after sex I feel like crap and can't run as fast. Two days after I feel pretty much normal again.
I do a lot of shitty workouts.

Dams, that's some genius stuff.

The day after sex you feel like crap? That can't be a good sign...

I forgot who it was that said "Go ahead, just try not to disturb the starter."
I like to have sex right after my warmup but before my strides (gotta get a little more limber.)
If you are married and having sex exclusively with your spouse, I do not see a problem.

any woman with me after I've had tequila should plan on burning at least 2000 calories and being sore...

It's great! You sleep like a baby and wake up refreshed and ready to go. Don't have it the morning of the race tho.
I've always wondered about two things in running:
1) Is sex night before a race bad
and
2) How do elites keep their packages from showing.
As for the first, I definitely feel less aggressive and my quads feel more wet noodly running the morning after sex. Not sure if that actually makes me slower, but maybe. It certainly makes me feel less aggressive. Which is probably bad.
as for #2...any ideas?
