There’s also the potential for serious health risks. Since the combo of alcohol and activated charcoal could make you more likely to puke, it’s possible to experience a—where some vomit ends up in your lungs instead of in your mouth or throat, which is rare but as bad as it sounds. “It can cause injury to the lungs, impair the transfer of oxygen, and ultimately lead to aspiration pneumonia,” Hardesty says.
If running with a hangover sounds like something you’d rather avoid, you’re better off drinking a lot of water and pushing your workout to later in the day, when your symptoms are likely to be less intense. “With hangovers, the only really good treatments are fluid and time,” says Swartzwelder. It might be smarter to just grab your favorite electrolyte drink and go to sleep. Another option? Just skip the run altogether and take a day off to recoup, suggests Jones.
And next time, consider capping your drinks a little sooner. “The easier thing would be to just not drink as much,” Swartzwelder says. Marygrace Taylor is a health and wellness writer for Prevention, Parade, Women’s Health, Redbook, and others.
