Beer Mile

In 2019, Jeremy self immolated by running a Beer Mile as punishment for getting last place in the Phantasy Phootball League two years in a row. It was honest one of the more impressive things he's done. This page is in memorial of that accomplishment as I forgot to save the recording of it. Other last places finishers are encouraged to partake or come up with an equally painful punishment.

Official Beer Mile Time: 8 minutes, 19 seconds

Beer: Pelican West Coast Lager

An Interview with Jeremy (from 2019)

What was your thought process as your prepared for the beer mile? Any special training?

Jeremy: I am a pretty great runner and a pretty average drinker - some back-of-the-napkin math led me to believe that I could run a sub 8 beer mile. I ran one practice lap (1 beer, 1 lap) and honestly it wasn't that bad so that inspired confidence.

We noticed you went with a crisp Pelican West Coast Pilsner in a bottle. Talk about your decision; anything you'd do different?

Jeremy: Poor decision, the bottle was supposed to be easier to introduce air so my stomach wouldn't explode. I failed to realize how much foam I would have to drink. Should have gone with Bud Light Premium or some other 5%+ lager

What was going through your head on the final lap?

Jeremy: I started wayy to fast on that last lap and paid for it down the stretch. I focused too much on running fast and not enough on belching the necessary 30-40 times to release the pressure on my stomach. The last half of the lap sucked- but my training kicked in and allowed me to finish. I kept it all down for about 15 seconds before I puked up about half gallon of foam.
