It's feasible. What I want to know is what's the best way to do it? Or, is there a best way?
Just gut instinct (pun or no) tells me to drink maybe 6-8 at night (say midnight) then you get a good solid sleep. Wake up and do your long run (try for like 18-20 miles) then have a few more beers for lunch. Run again for 4-6 in the afternoon and finish the day by steady drinking. Hope you make your 24 before passing out.
This is nothing didnt Shorter drink like ten beers before a major marathon one night?
Get up am and run 24 miler. Hydrate, eat, nap etc. Eat some more - heavy meal of steak and potatoes - more water- now hit that case - no problem!
midnight: 7 miles then 7 beers while having some food.
sleep til 11
run 10 miles, have lunch then 9 beers
nap til 9
run 7 miles and have 8 beers throughout the night while eating
Even splits are always the way to go, in a marathon, or in something unique like this one. Figure out a mile loop around your 'hood. Each hour you need to run a mile and drink a beer. You won't get tired, and shouldn't get wasted as long as your body can process the alcohol.
Some guys on my old XC team tried to do "insomnoholics" where they drank a beer every hour for 24 hrs. Of course they didn't make it.
Ive done 19 miles 19 beers on my 19th birthday
Woke up at 7am: 8 miles
Did an afternoon run of 4 miles just to say i did 19 miles that day (I knew I had an evening run w/ my training group.
Evening run at 7pm: 7miles
Started drinkin at 9pm and pounded down 19+ beers by 2:30am
just run 24 miles and then do case day 1 beer every half an hour for 12 hours it can be done
what type of shape do you need to be in (both as a runner and a semi-alcoholic) to do this?
i think there was a thread on here a while back about doing the same thing, but substitute 100 for 24. that would be something to talk about.

Yeah, and substitute a WHOLE WEEKEND for one day. See the difference?
(Or did you think people were doing 100 beers and 100 miles in a day??)
I was young when I heard this so it didn't mean much to me at the time, but didn't Andre the Giant drink 112 beers one day then have a glass of wine at dinner? Something ridiculous like that. He didn't run 24 miles though.

i bet if you were a damn good ultra-runner, and you drank beer ALOT, you could pull this off .
damn that 4.16 beers an hour??
hmm...
you know what this isnt such bad idea, i was going to be pretty board this summer ...but.
Hey luke if your reading this, what do you think ??

this is the most obvious and best answer...if you're a decent runner who can get through 24 without too much trouble. why ruin a good time once you start drinking by going and running more? get er done in one shot.
The reality is that most in shape runners would have a much harder time doing this...24 beers for a 130 pound dude is a lot harder than for a 180 pound dude...however, they can both probably shlep through the 24 miles....
I agree with monkiefs, just do 24 miles or so which will take you maybe 2 1/2 hours or so, then grab a 24 of some pabst and have at it. Just make sure you get a lot of sleep before this you dont want to get drowsy during this cuz then your done for sure. I heart U monkiefs
BE A DUDE.. RUN 24 MILES.. SHOWER... EAT
AND POUND 4 6-PACKS
ANY OTHER WAY IS PUSS
