He didn’t train for the Olympics, the Olympics were training for THIS.
Track star Nick Symmonds is fast — super fast — at both running and chugging beers!
LOLz!
He ran the mile in 5:15, all the while he chugged FOUR beers!
Nick was trying was for the world record in the Beer Mile, which requires athletes to chug an entire beer at the beginning, both quarter miles, and the end.
The world record is 5:09, set by Canadian marathon legend Jim Finlayson — so unfortunately he was off by about 6 seconds.
Maybe he’ll get it after training in Rio in 2016!
HA!
Better luck next time, Nick!
