Just here to say you guys (not just this dweeb) who are cracking your totally-jumped-the-shark-2-years-ago burrito and other jokes are f-ing losers and not nearly as funny as you think you are. Get over it. There's no money in this event, and it's a nice combo of semi-serious but also tongue-in-cheek. Props to Shelby for throwing down a 5:43 beer mile. Most of you are probably still drinking your mother's milk, but 5:43 is f-ing impressive.
It’s a bunch of acne cheeked jv kids who spend their whole spring seasons as relay alternates. And washed up post collegiate never-beens who run 6:30 pace every easy run but can’t even break 75 in the half.
Ooooh.... telling them they run their easy runs too fast. That'll burn them good!
Faith Kipyegon will crush this record any time she chooses, which I expect will be very soon. Find a way to apply Wavelight technology to beer chugging and she might even go sub-5.
I'd pay good money to see this, but I think you underestimate how challenging it is for a small Kenyan to chug beer.
Racist! What are you saying, that Kenyans are genetically less good at drinking beer?? And then you finish with an insult to the vertically challenged!
The best thing she can do right now is to tell the truth.
Instead she keeps popping up in the sport where she is not wanted.
So she asks for the vitriol.
What would the reaction be from the people that have supported her? Her confession would be, “I’m sorry I got caught and couldn’t win at CAS” so it wouldn’t do her any good.
Obviously this was publicity stunt and it changes nothing about my opinion that she is a cheaty cheaterton. However, anyone who has attempted this dumb event knows that a 5:43 beer mile is hardcore. Have to tip my hat to that.
