No, but I run a lot.

Are you in the "milk after a run" club too?

I am. I never thought about it specifically, but yes. Most longer runs in Wisconsin give out chocolate milk along with the traditional banana at the end, and I drink both milk and water after my own training runs (though during the week I run between work and dinner, so it's also just milk with dinner). I feel like the milk helps, but it's so hard to pin down any one thing as helping or hurting. I've read about athletes being paranoid about food (Usain Bolt eating McNuggets at the Olympics comes to mind), and I can see why.
