Beer and Running, Again

I’d like you to meet my latest creation: THIRD MILE TRIPPEL.

It is my second attempt at doing some homebrew and it turned out very well, if I do say so myself. The name has its origins in the fact that I live about a block from the third mile of the Lincoln Marathon course.  Not sure I will ever get to much into making my own beer, but it is really fun and kind of a joy to share it with friends after a run.

I have commented before on the relationship that running and beer have.  Between the camaraderie, the goofy bets, and just some sort of relationship that exists between a brew and relaxin’, I like beer.  As do many runners.  I don’t need it to have a good time at races, though the best beer I ever had was after the 2007 Chicago Marathon.  But something seems right.  Runners World had an interesting article last month and telling stories over a pint or two never really sucks.

 

This is also a plug to get signed up for the Leprechaun Chase 10k.  It is almost closed and is typically a fun race.  Check back here soon for our prediction contest.
