I will absolutely race you anytime you try to attempt this challenge for real. You will get crushed but I welcome the challenge...the only reason I am not attempting this now is I have grad school work to do and it is too hot to attempt in my vicinity right now.
If any joker on here actually wants to challenge me then let me know. I am ready any time and any place. Otherwise you wannabe challengers can STOP PLAYIN.

Scroll down to about mid-page for "proof" of his legitimacy.
I ran fairly well at Elizabethtown College in PA during 2005-2006. Like I stated previously I am quite out of shape now but am trying to get back into good shape soon hopefully. I just got back from the bar. I am at 65 miles and 75 beers currently. My friend just got taken to the police station for a DWI. That is very bad, I said we should get a taxi home but she didn't listen. This really sucks now and pits a serious damper on my challenge. It is currently 5am. I will wake up by 9am to try to get going and see what I can do.

Gee, I would hate to see a sophomoric binge drinking stunt sidetracked by a DWI.
Well good news this morning as my friend was under the limit when blowing at the station, very thankful for that. Back to the challenge....I just put in 4 miles on the track....going to try to do 4-6 more before resting for maybe an hour. And yes, I took into account the extra 9 meters per mile. I ran a very slow two miles on the roads two days ago with my friend that I did not count, that should cover the extra 9 meters per lap. Now, back to some running.

I'm rooting for you, hope you make it. Either way, you'll have a great story.
Awesome job man if this is for real! you should of kept a blog about it instead of letsrun... BTW i want to be your facebook friend-no homo
Thank you to those who are sending me their support towards my challenge. I ran a total of 12 this morning finally putting my mile total past beer total. Currently at 77 miles and 75 beers. My body is a wreck right now, I am going to rest for an hour and then hope I can keep running. I have 16 hours left in the challenge.
~Tyson Brock
Are you going to try 1 or 2 more long runs or limp home on 2 milers and such? You'll get there, keep it up and make sure you don't die. I think challenges like this are great, one for the record book.
16 hours to get 23 miles and 25 beers...it can be done, but you're going to have to dig deep.
Still living in upstate ny tyson?
I actually moved out to Flagstaff, AZ four months ago but have been back in upstate NY for the past three weeks visiting friends....that is where I am doing this challenge. I just got done with 8 miles, in four little two mile runs. I don't know if my body could take an actual longer run right now. I am currently at 85 miles and 75 beers. I have done 55 miles since like noon yesterday, I am so tired out. I am going to the convenience store now to get some more PBR. I will drink a few before finishing up my miles this evening. Wish me luck!
Next time I try this, in maybe mid-September I am going to have friends essentially record the whole ordeal and put it online. I will also better schedule my running/drinking. This was really a practice run to prove to myself I could do it.....which right now I actually think I can.
~Tyson Brock
14 hours to go 15 miles, sounds like you are home free. You could literally run 1 mile per hour. Run a mile, drink some beer sleep for 45 mins and repeat.
Hmmm...there is a small part of me that doubts you are really doing this. I would expect more spelling errors from someone with this much alcohol going through his system. I hope you really are, because I've been impressed with the rally. Honestly, I think I might have kicked your ass into gear a little bit the other day.
Godspeed, my son.

Do this or don't. Your compete level is pathetic.
You seriously need to decide if this is important or not. I believe it is, but I can't decide that for you. If you don't have the MAN inside you to get off your f***ing beach chair at the lake and run around that sum'bitch 3 times while stopping at the camp for a 6 pack every three house until you get to 80 miles, you might as well give up. Pull a goddamned all nighter if you have to. After you do that, you should be just about done with the beer by then. Sure, you'll be drunk and sick as shit, but that will leave you with 12 hours to get in a 20 mile run. Sleep off the beer for 8 hours and get off your ass for a 20 miler. You make me sick. I'm actually a little embarrassed for you.
Get off your lazy ass and make your dreams a reality, bitch.
I laughed out loud when reading this. Well done sir.
Hey Brock, way to rally. Seems like you're gonna make it unless something catastrophic happens.
Why have we come so far without telling him the secret to any such challenge?
"And too there were questions: What did he eat? Did he believe in isometrics? Isotonics? Ice and heat? Beereal? How about aerobics, est, ESP, STP? What did he have to say about yoga, yogurt, Yogi Berra? What was his pulse rate, his blood pressure, his time for 100-yard dash? What was the secret, they wanted to know; in a thousand different ways they wanted to know The Secret. And not one of them was prepared, truly prepared to believe that it had not so much to do with chemicals and zippy mental tricks as with that most unprofound and sometimes heart-rending process of removing, molecule by molecule, the very tough beereal that comprised the bottoms of his bowl. The Trial of Miles, Miles of Trials. How could they be expected to understand that?" - Once a Runner by John L. Parker, Jr.
Its been right there this entire time. Beereal. A simple concoction made by combining cereal in its two forms, fermented and unfermented. Nothing else can drive an engine in quite the same way. Post-run, pre-run, or mid-run; beereal is your friend.
Truthfully I don't have all that much alcohol in my system right now. In the past 48 hours I have only consumed about 30 beers. I did my heavy drinking at the beginning and my heavy running the past 24 + hours. I don't know if this was the beat way to go about the challenge, probably not from how my body is killing me, but it's going to get the job done for now. Currently sitting 85 miles and 82 beers. I feel like death. 3 more beers and it's nap time. Then the 15 miles this evening to be followed by 15 beers. I'm actually going to do this guys. Thanks for the encouragement and helping get my ass back in gear.

I like that attitude. I suggest making a necklace with all the beer tabs on it. Then, when people ask about it, you can tell them how you did the 3x100 workout.
