How fast can I run a beer mile?

4:28 mile, 3:30 marathon, what happened?

Also, your 10-12 beers are irrelevant, beer mile is not about tolerance, you do not become intoxicated until after the event. That said it seems like you could do pretty well.

Haha lots of time off and I actually broke my toe at work during the summer which derailed my marathon training. My longest training run before the marathon was about 17 miles. Needless to say finishing was an accomplishment for me haha I plan on doing it again next year with better training hopefully under 3 hours

So what do you think, under 7 minutes possible? Under 6 a miracle?

BTW, I don't know a large sample of beer milers but in my n=1: mile 4:58, beer mile 6:53, marathon 2:56, if that helps. It's all about the drinking though.

That does help and that's impressive man. Thanks for the help. Gonna get started on the drinking training soon.

I have gone sub 6 in beer mile and have a mile pr of 4:36..... Usually takes about 10 secs a beer, I just have a week stomach so it slows me down.

When I ran my fastest beer mile I was probably in like 5:45 for a mile shape (yes, I am a male). Not a fast runner at all. Ran my beer mile in 7:04 with some left in the tank. Beat a guy that was once a 4:04 miler, and still easily in sub 4:20 shape. It's all about the drinking.

All about the drinking. 4:40 miler... 6:54 beer mile after 3 attempts. Hard to chug a Budweiser and run! Especially that 3rd one.
