3, 2, 1, LET’S BEER MILE!
The event that put DB on the map. While we didn’t invent the beer mile, this unique mix of running and beer drinking is the perfect fit for our club.
HOW IT WORKS
- Each competitor drinks four cans of beer and runs four laps (start – beer, then lap, then beer, then lap, then beer, then lap, then beer, then lap – finish).
- Beer must be consumed before the lap is begun, at the race tables.
- Competitors must drink canned beer and the cans should not be less than 12oz.
- No specialized cans may be used that give an advantage by allowing the beer to pour at a faster rate. (ex: “super mega mouth cans” are prohibited.)
- Beer cans must not be tampered with in any manner, ie. no shotgunning or puncturing of the can except for opening the can by the tab at the top.
- Beer must be a minimum of 5% alcohol by volume. Hard ciders, seltzers, and lemonades will not suffice. The beer must be a fermented alcoholic beverage brewed from malted cereal grains and flavored with hops.
- Each beer can must not be opened until the competitor stands at the table on each lap.
- Competitors who vomit before they finish the race are disqualified.
