Notre Dame Senior Shotguns a Beer Prior to Every Mile in Half-Marathon

By Jason Fletcher

Emmet Farnan is the hero we never knew that we needed.

The Notre Dame senior recently ran a half-marathon in 1:43:42 which is certainly a respectable time.

It’s even better when you learn that he drank a beer before every mile of the race so Farnan ended up chugging 13 beers and still finished in under two hours.

“It is hard to put into words how impossibly full I felt after my eighth beer, especially knowing that I was only slightly past the half-way mark,” Farnan wrote in a piece for Citius Mag. “Paired with this was the fact that running agitated the beer causing the need to spit out foam every couple hundred meters. I can confidently say that the last three miles may have been some of most uncomfortable miles that I had run in ages.”
