There is a new beer mile world record holder.

Chris Kimbrough, a 44-year-old mother of six, ran the beer mile in 6:28.6 on Sunday, which bested Seanna Robinson’s mark of 6:42.0 in 1997. The beer mile awesomely entails drinking a beer, running a lap and repeating that three more times.

Watch video of Kimbrough’s incredible accomplishment below:

Kimbrough, who is training for the Beer Mile World Championship, spoke to Runners World about her record-setting run.

"“The run part wasn’t that hard for me. The last two [beers] were harder to get down because I felt like there was this air there, so it wasn’t going down. Having all those beers in [my] stomach didn’t really bother me as much as I thought it would. I think learning how to get the burp out more before you get to that next beer would probably help,” she mused.But at the same time, she says, “I have six kids. It’s not like I’m going to be doing a lot of practicing.”(…)Kimbrough says it’s the carbonation, not the alcohol, that is the hardest to deal with. She notes that she didn’t feel the alcohol until after she finished her run, at which point she went for a long walk with her husband, the man holding the beers for her in the video above."

Clearly, running the beer mile is not an easy task.

However, it does look fun, so grab four beers and a stop watch and get out there.
