HEY We have some AWESOME MicroBrews out here...better than the "swill" they try to give you when you order a beer out there. You ask " what do you have?" and the answer is always:
"uh Samuel Adams, Bud, Miller" :eek:

Try the swill here. There's like two places that serve "microbrews" and one of em is just a custom bre from Bud. And it sucks! I miss Boulder...
Oh, yeah, and good job, Chris!

Triguy98-
It never ceases to amaze me. I am out there at least onece a year and I can honestly say Florida may be the worse place for ordering beer. We are spoiled out here. I live just a couple of miles from the Redhook brewry, and we have also Pyramid and others ...of course one of my favorites IS Fat Tire and thats from Colorado :)

I'm NOT supposed to have beer in peak training season? No one told me this when I started.
I might have to reconsider; maybe go back to playing hockey where it's mandatory.
oh, and fantastic result Christri/

Waynorth-
When you are training It is not "having beer" or "drinking beer",
it is "liquid carbohydrate supplementation" :D

Hey Beads, they should allow beer for carb suppl. for IMs eh? At least it would ease the pain of the last 6mi!!!

I saw something on TV(so it must be true!!) about a couple of these ultra marathoners who were having "liquid carbohydrate supplementation" on the course.
They said it had carbs and the alcohol did help with pain management.
In all 5 marathons I have done there is usually a beer table set up(UNOFFICIALLY of course)
Usually a local Hash House Harriers group does it.. Right around miles 19 - 21.
It got me thru the last 6 miles of the Philly marathon..
Sweet ,Sweet ,Beer.... :rolleyes:

At the Milw. Lake Front Marathon - they had an Official beer tent at the finish.
Well - I did say it was Milwaukee...
There was just no way that I could put a beer down after the marathon.
But a couple hours later - it was time to reward myself - that Big Mac AND the Quarter Pounder with Cheese went down real nice. Burp.... Back to good eating the follwoing day tho.
