Is this where you run a mile on a track with 1 beer per lap?

Damn...how do I finance such a trip...OMG, that would be fun! Know what would be even better? Finding friends in Florida or south TX who could arrange such a race that time of the year! Big grin

right now the trickiest thing is finding a track that allows public consumption of alcohol!

I've never done this before, but it sounds like fun, except for the penalty lap thing, that might be rough. So I'd probably be in. I get up to NYC from DC fairly regularly and I'm toying with the idea of running enough NYRR races in 2008 to qualify for NYC Marathon 2009. A long term plan, I know, but it could be fun. I know there are lots of people in here from Pennsylvania, so maybe somewhere more central to all of us could be arranged?

Putting together a beer mile in NJ this weekend. There will actually be two. One Saturday at 3:00pm and one Sunday at 11:00am. Two totally unrelated groups both doing their beer miles the same weekend. Both are taking place in Morris County if people want more info.
