Feeling the growl again

     

    Get Stille to send it out to his crew. They also like running and beer.

     

    And let my co-workers in on the idiocy?

     

    Not a bad idea.

    Feeling the growl again

      Less than two weeks away.  Final logistical messages sent.  If you got left out holler out.

          I figured but had to dangle it.  I will admit the beer mile is challenged to hold a candle to what looked like two weeks on the Superior shoreline.  Smile

            I believe everyone has the directions/instructions who has coming.  Most of you could stagger your way here inebriated...which could actually come in useful.

              My fat ass is in. Should I look to find more participants?

                The more the merrier.  As long as they are remotely trustworthy.  I never thought to invite JB, you should ask him.

                  I've been pretty silent on this.

                   

                  When I give up my Beer Mile virginity it will either be at Spaniels or The Monkey.

                   

                  Looks like we will be moving the young lad to Missouri...regrettfully out.

                    Sorry to hear this.  I did what I could for you!

                     

                    Given the weather...we may really have a steeple pit in Turn 4.  Maybe not standing water but I have my doubts I can mow it tomorrow.

                     

                    Life has been a crap storm this year.  No fancy trophies like last year.  But a good selection of bombers for the winners to choose from.

                      Today is the day? Run and drink well my friends!

                      Not at it at all.

                        All is ready and I'm already tired and dehydrated.  Four beers should fix that...

                              spaniel - 7:07 (drank pretty well...20sec slower than last year due to beer gut)

                              C-R - 9:17 (finally found a doable beer)

                              WhoDat coworker - 9:59 (gutsy finish to say out of double digits)

                              soccer guy - 12:36 (drank two 16oz cans in there)

                              hacker2000 - 21:26 (also a glutton for punishment with two 16oz cans)

                              WhoDatRunner - 46:43 (gutted it out to finish; peer pressure is a terrible thing)

                              beef - 46:43 (back issues)

                               

                              I felt awful enough at the finish that I forgot to take photos until pretty late in the race, but I have a few for later.

                                My 5th beer mile and my times just get worse and worse.  But it is fun to go from sober to drunk in 15 minutes.

                                So bittersweet,
                                This tragedy
                                Won't ask for absolution;
                                This melody,
                                Inside of me,
                                Still searches for solution.
                                A twist of faith,
                                A change of heart
                                Cures my infatuation.
                                A broken heart, 
                                Provides the spark
                                For my determination.
