Property Value
dbo:abstract
  • The Flotrack Beer Mile World Championship was an annual beer mile competition that took place in Austin, Texas between 2014 and 2016 that was sponsored by Flotrack, a running-focused media company. On December 1, 2015 at the second annual World Championship, Canadian Lewis Kent set a new world record with a time of 4:47.17. The course used at the 2015 race is considered illegal due to a short, inaccurately measured course, and a chug zone that was twice the legal limit at nearly 20 meters. The long chug zone allowed athletes to cover more ground walking through the zone. This error effectively shortened the races, and the long chug zone made at least a 5-second difference. In 2016, an accurate course measurement resulted in slower times by all athletes. When accurately measured, the 2015 course is considered to be 10-12 faster than the accurately measured 2016 course. The third annual World Championship was be held on December 17, 2016. Flotrack cancelled the event in 2017, citing internal budget concerns. (en)
