For those of you who have read this a long time ago, way back in the first semester we participated in a Bierlauf. It's a fun social activity put on by a student restaurant-bar where teams of 3 compete against each other to run around campus drinking 24 Beck's beers (8 liters total, 2.4liters per person, or 90fl.oz. per person) and a heavy plastic container and see which team can do it the fastest. The first, second, and third teams all win prizes.
Last time, each team had to run 3.8KM (like 2.2 miles) and the fastest time was 38 minutes. My team (me, Scott, and Ryan) won our category of team with 44 minutes.
This time, each team has to run 4.5KM (like 2.8 miles) with the same amount of beer. But this tim there are more teams because it's more popular.
Some teams:
"The Deciders" (reference to G.W.Bush... American team...) - Me, Scott, Ryan
then there is an American/Canadian team: Stuart, JP, and Petar
then there is another American/Canadian team: Dennis, Matt, and Dan
there is also a girls team.. but they probably wont finish.
There are other teams besides these, but those are the internationals.
by the way, this Bierlauf is going to be taking place this Thursday after classes. It might also be raining!! coolest thing!
