Finally, after weeks of preparation, Australia Day was here and so was my chance to test not only my physical prowess... for today, I would also test my intestinal fortitude, literally.
In theory, it sounds like the perfect event. Drink beer, run a bit, drink more beer...
I'm an "athletic powerhouse" and I've always professed to have a cast iron stomach. Perfect event for me, and a great way to spend Australia Day. No?

Practice makes perfect
So, Speedy Reidy and I have made a pact to run the Beer Mile this Australia Day.
What is a Beer Mile? I'm glad you asked. Basically it goes like this:
Beer - run 400m - beer - run 400m - beer - run 400m - beer - run 400m.
"Is this serious?" I glad you asked this too. I asked the same thing, and was surprised (and also delighted) to find that the Beer Mile is globally regulated. There are proper rules, and official world records.
Like most events I enter, the Athletic Powerhouse has commenced a serious commitment to preparation.
