I've done a number of Ironmans and marathons. I definitely feel "punch drunk" for a couple days after doing Ironman class races and the main training days (think like 100 mile bike / 10 mile run in one session).
But I completely recover after a day or two.
I personally draw the line at sleep deprivation, so those nutso Barkley Marathoners that go like 3 days without rest? Nah. RAAM? Nope. No thatnks.
