Beer mile fever to hit Montreal this weekend
Smartwool in collaboration with Ciele Athletic and Xact Nutrition is organizing a beer mile in Montreal on Sept. 30
The combination of running and drinking is hitting Montreal this weekend to close out September.
The rules of a beer mile are simple: run one mile (four laps of a 400m track plus 9m) and drink four beers as fast as you can. Plus, you can go home with some sweet swag as there will be giveaways from SmartWool and Ciele Athletics and nutrition from Xact Nutrition. Raised funds will go to Camp Lift, a non-profit offering inner city youth the experience of a week-long and development programs in the heart of nature.
