    About

    The Beer Mile Podcast is co-hosted by Chuggernauts Chris Robertson and Adam Shurson. Chris is a Beer Mile World Champion and Record Holder and Adam is the engineer behind the beermile.com website. It's like Flotrack, LetsRun, or CitiusMag but with more beer and tomfoolery. The running world could use a little more spice and flare. Exclusive, uncensored content: https://patreon.com/beermile In the vast world of extreme sports, there exists a sub-culture called "digestive athletics." The most famous, glorified, respected and celebrated of all the events of this underworld is the Beer Mile.

    Ben True joins us to reflect on his marathon debut at the NYC Marathon (2:12, 7th overall), his 4th place finish at the US Olympic Trials 10k (he holds a 27:14 10km PB), and his future racing plans. We also dive into just about every aspect of his career and life, including his decision to go to Dartmouth, choosing to train solo for several years, eventually paying Dan Curts $20,000 to train with him, making ends meet when Saucony didn't renew his contract, his upbringing in XC skiing, becoming a father, eating 6 bagels before races, his love for coffee, his views on anti-doping, and a whole lot more. Ben isn't much of a social media guy, but give him a follow on Insta anyway because when he does post, it's all gold (@BenJTrue)
