last night at the annual beer mile in madison andy downin upset last years champion henry dennis. both beastly men ran a great race but it was downin who prevailed as he hunted dennis down in the final lap only to out sprint him in the home stretch.
and bairu and solinsky couldnt manage to finish once again; way to go losers.
duh...this is like the tour de france of beer miles.
one of those guys probably had a messed up testosterone ratio.
and that's the only reason mortimer and the kenyans in other races can top America's best. They're all drugged up!!!
Sarcasm.
FYI: I should've included this in one post.

I dont believe Solinsky and Bairu were there. Any pictures?
How'd that lockhart kid do?
Lockhardt 19:01.4

What's the world record for the beer mile?
Wonder what woulda happened if Jason Lunn was there.

probably would have gotten in a fight
Sadly, though, the beers pictured seem to be mostly ineligible (due to low alcohol content), as far as official times go. These times would have to be considered aided.
Judging from the pics it looks like the runners take the beer mile pretty seriously - wearing new track spikes and such...I thought I read somewhere (MensRacing.com?) in an interview with Solinksy that after a few freshman benders he quit drinking?
is that freaking ryan gasper in the background?
Any pics of the chicks?
Is there drug testing in this beer mile? How do we know Andy wasn't on conbimation of the clear and EPO?
Back a couple of years ago another big ten school held a beer mile, the ad saw the results and suspended all involved for the rest of the semster including several all americans.
IU was the school that had runners suspended
