| May 12, 2001 Orange County Kingstonmile A new era begins |
| Felix "I feel funny" Lopez set the Orange County Masters record of 8:54. Here he shows how to suck one down. |
| Mike Bremser takes it to another level and sets a new Orange County Beer Mile record of 6:49. Here Steven "2 Time Champ" Robinson hands off the title. |
| Mike's shoes. They must have been 20 years old but have brought him a lot of luck. |
| The Start. Notice the casual style of Mike (3rd from the left). Mike came in confident. Before the race he said, "4 cups of coffee and a burrito for lunch and after training the 800 in 3:20 on Wednesday night, I am going out there to win and I have the tools to win." |
| After a quick first lap in 1:32, Darren started to suffer. After his 3rd lap he went from side to side of the track and said, "I got nothing today. I quit." Last beer mile he displayed great skill in getting to the bushes and feeling much better. It was not to be a repeat performance. |
| Eric is in last place after one lap and already hurting. Mike and Darren have finished their 2nd beer and left the line before Eric finishes his first lap. |
| Mike sees that Darren didn't drink his fourth beer and starts training for the next beer mile right away. |
| Charles "Chartmaster" Wilbur comes up with some charts to try to figure out how to run splits to set a PR. |
| All the charts in the world cannot help Charles when he does the last lap in 8:48. He wasn't too upset. He still beat his first beer mile time. Here he just sits back and enjoys his fourth Heineken with Kenny. |
