Jim Finlayson of Victoria BC ran another Beer Mile World time. This one I beleive is legal in all ways. But I assume and do not know if there is some ratification process going on.
He has run all his beer miles under 5:30 I beleive, some not legal on little technicalities this one was 5:09, like last year\'s 5:13, because there is no video evidence.
Yes this is what I said, \"5:09\" two nights ago.
Legal in all ways - so you video taped this one?
Yes, we want video verification of this!!!!

Same Finlayson who ran for Mich in the mid '90s? I had a few battles with that guy .... we were pretty even. Maybe I could match this.
I think this would have been video'd, as he was aware that his 5:13 was not legalized because of the lack of vid.
It was witnessed by a couple hundred people I think.
I don't know if he even cares if it gets ratified.
Maybe he does, I don't know.
But his beer was a legal brew in legal bottles and his splits have been recorded for both beer and running.
It's legit, no question in anyone's mind, but rules are rules and I have no idea if anyone is doing anything to ratify it.
To that other guy. Yes Michigan, since he has run some marathons, I think pbing in 2:18 on a rolly course. And run 29s for 10...
Great consolation to not making the Olympic team! Maybe by 2012 they'll add it, along with a "who can win the most lame road races in a year" competition for OZ.
Rock-on 215North!
What is 215North? Inside joke?

Left Coast,
Are you related to the stellar and amazing Mr. Wet Coast?
This guy is a Lydiard fanatic apparently.
I'll check out THAT site.
Now tell me Lefty, what does 215 refer to? Isn't the standard, in the Great White North like 2:12:30 or something like that? How would that make any sense?? 2:15...may they mean 2:15 as in they do their 800s in 00:2:15. What do you think?
Wet Coast is a rep. of, Team Wet Toast. I think they do triathlons or something like that?
