This broken wing will fly again
One fine day
This blackbird's mute gonna sing again

So all you sinners come out
And all you drunkards crawl out
Come into the light of one fine day

Just commenting so I get updates. DBB will make the four hour drive for this one with ease.

Just a reminder to the participants .... No Drinking and Driving ... and, make sure you have someone to drive you back home afterwards ... :naughty: :naughty: :naughty:

Sure. But you are both not coming despite being in the area and telling how we should do it in your absence? :P

Just show up!

No worries HCcD. I will be attending and documenting every minute of this mile :lol: and then driving the boy to the hotel where I suspect he will purge himself some more of the adult beverage.

Ironboy - are you serving up bacon, eggs and buttery toast aftewards to the participants? The body's reaction to that would be entertaining to the sober. =))

I must seem confused on the concept
I usually only drink on training runs
I mostly try to run sober on race days
You're blurring the lines that keep my life on track
next up:


This broken wing will fly again
One fine day
This blackbird's mute gonna sing again

So all you sinners come out
And all you drunkards crawl out

It's not too late to organize one in your neck of the woods, we could compare results and declare a maniac beer mile champion. This would be worthy of a Spud Trophy!

Just so you are aware and intimidated, I am not undertrained - I chugged two beers and ran up and down the eighth floor hallway of the Quality Inn last night before bed.

It turns predictions into results once it hits midnight. But hopefully I can fulfill my dream!

Congrats on the Win DBB!
