The 2015 Beer Mile World Championships took place on December 1st in Austin, Texas, and the world record fell once again. The new record, 4:47.0, was taken by Lewis Kent, who is now the only Beer Mile Pro in the world. He also holds three of the top six beer mile times. The rules for the beer mile are pretty simple. Drink four beers, at least 355 ml and 5%, and run 4 laps. No shotgunning and no wide mouth cans. It's good to see Canada rule such a prestigious sport. https://staminist.com/read.php?2,391,391#msg-391 Fri, 01 May 2026 14:21:23 -0500 Phorum 5.2.19 https://staminist.com/read.php?2,391# https://staminist.com/read.php?2,391# Meet the Grandma Who Outran Her Kids at the Beer Mile

Although..... Beer mile breaks new ground as athlete signs industry’s first lucrative contract
The deal will pay the beer miler more than what Brooks pays an amateur athlete - oh my god... ^ CLICK TO REPLY]]> Skye Running Forum Sun, 06 Dec 2015 19:49:55 -0600 https://staminist.com/read.php?2,391# https://staminist.com/read.php?2,391# The 2015 Beer Mile World Championships took place on December 1st in Austin, Texas, and the world record fell once again.
