100+ Miles, 100+ Beers... Death Before Dishonor

At Chico they call that doing Chico miles.

Gotta be Sierra Nevada Pale Ale. Mmmmmm....

What about removing the gamesmanship from the enterprise by running a mile, then drinking a beer. Running a mile, then drinking a beer. (Repeat 98 more times during a week's time.)

Forget the "front loading" and "back loading" stuff.

True, but if you do that you can't even go for a measley 4 mile run without carrying all this beer with you. Plus it would be annoying to stop every mile to drink.

Rumor has it that John Maigret did this 9 times during his collegiate career with his homemade brew.

Props to this guy if he completes it, please keep the updates coming.

Don't know if this has been mentioned yet, but YP of Edinburgh's Hunters Bog Trotters has previously completed the 100/100/100 ie 100 pints, 100 miles, 100 hours. Now that's impressive.

Every time this challenge comes up, people don't respect how difficult it is. Oh yeah, 10 beers after lunch, take a nap, run 10 more miles, then 10 beers after dinner. No problem! What bullshit.

I hang out with mostly non-runners, some of whom are well over 200 lbs. and drink reguarly, and they would not be able to handle the 100 beers in 100 hours, nevermind the running. There's no way 95% of you skinny distance runners with your false bravado can do this.

Everyone likes to inflate their memory of how much they used to drink in college.

y are you doing this during finals week?

y are you doing this while in school?

u will have the rest of your life to do crazy sht, like this.

me I ran this morning, working a few more hours tonight, then its home to a bottle of JD and a 6-pack of whatever. That's what you have to look forward to.

UPDATE:

We're in the dining hall drinking what appears to be dark apple juice.... The beer count for the day is 5, with the week's total at 26. Mileage for today was 12 miles in a single. Total mileage: 57 in three days.

To respond to some of the questions/comments, here is what we have to say:

1. Guinness is 4% alcohol and is less dense than lagers (i.e. Black and Tans with the "black" on top). Plus, he has had 14 pints of Guinness in one night with 3/4 a bottle of Baileys, and says that drinking PBR and Molson is more of a challenge.

2. The reason for the feat occurring during finals week is two-fold. A) This is his last week of college, since he is graduating this semester. B) Since he is leaving, he has a legacy to leave behind.

Here's what we did last night: We sat up listening to Rufus Wainwright while our freshmen were trying to kill the keg left over from Saturday night. Urine was sprayed all over the bathroom, and one beer had to be subtracted from the total due to a misunderstanding between shrimp fettuccine and the 15-1 total beers.

Today after the run he drank 3 beers in the shower in the stadium. He was buzzed after one beer. Today's hangover was epic, apparently. After dinner here we're going to swing by the grocery store to pick up some more beers.

Tonight's plan: More of the same. We're having more freshmen over to the house to play some beirut, make a fire in the fireplace, etc.

Quote of the day (while in the shower after the run): "I keep trying to find an easy way to do this, but there's just no way. It's exactly like running: There are no shortcuts."

We'll keep updating as the night endures.

What is beirut???

What school does this guy run for?

30...did i miss something in my college days????

beirut is what northerners call beer pong. been around for a while

Beer pong. I think people started calling it that after the '83 bombing (dropping bombs/getting bombed) so yeah you missed out.

Okay....thanks...it is a fun game, never played it in college. It would be a good game for the 100/100. You get to drink a bunch of beers without really thinking too much about it. Good luck, may the force be with you.

Hopefully the guys i coach don't read this thread.

good luck man

i think this is awesome and possible. Whenever my friends and i have talked about this challenge its always involved 100 beers, 100 miles, and beat off 100 times which just doesnt seem possible.

To the noble gentleman undertaking this undertaking,

As you make your way through this mind, soul, and liver altering experience, reflect on the vast and everlasting glory that will accompany this great feat. I laud this brave soul for for having the proverbial berries to attempt such an immeasurable amount of anguish in the form of sore joints and icy cold liquid death that can be referred to as "pisswater" in the parlance of earlier posts. However in response to kind sir "il falco," his liver is going to be f***ed, the gentleman in question should be left with the comfort of viable and productive genitalia. May you sir as you buckle down for your third night of drinking progress with all health and happiness. May fortune smile on your finals this week. You have inspired one fellow athlete looking for glory.

In all seriousness good luck bro, you make me look like a bitch.

Thinking of you,

dls

Total Beers Tonight: 8

I've started a web shots album, so I guess I'll have to keep taking pictures as the night progresses. Here's the link:

Beirut is what we call beer pong to separate it from the type of beer pong that was invented at Dartmouth, which you play with paddles.

I've never played with paddles. Is it that much harder?
