Apparently at least one of the awards at the Willie Nelson 10K last week was a bottle of whiskey. I wonder if anyone won a bunch of doobies....or maybe those were "under the table" payments.

I'm can't remember the name of the race, but a local brewer was sponsoring a race in Oregon somewhere, and the overall winners got his/her weight in beer. My Aunt sent me the registration for it. If I can find it, I'll post the name of the race.
and people complain about prize money? pssh.
The "Shamrock Run" is the race in Portland. I believe you get your weight in beer for any of the three races (men and women winners)...5k, 8k, 15k...the 15k is most of the former Cascade course

There was a race in Michigan in the 70s called the Leinenkugal (sp?) Classic that awarded a case of this German beer to the winner. Actually, many people got interesting prizes as entrants were supposed to submit a prize for the prize table. The race got pretty good fields, including Shorter, Lindsey, Mavis, Flanagan, Minty and others.
