Beer Miles & Burpees
I’ve got two big athletic happenings in December.
Starting tomorrow I will begin the Crossfit Zone 100 Day Burpee Challenge. I will start with one burpee on day one and then I will add one burpee each day until I get to 100 burpees on the 100th day! I think it’s going to get ugly…
On December 22nd the 6th Annual Dave Smart Beer Mile will be held in Victoria and this is my favorite race of the year! Not only is it put on to raise funds and awareness for an amazing organization it is also the cause of EPIC amounts of fun!
I’ve had the good fortune to participate in every Dave Smart Beer Mile to date, below are my results thus far. This year the goal is for a sub 9′ Beer Mile, I will be heading to Vancouver Island Brewery on Friday for a tasting to test out the potential beer of choice for this years Mile.
