Beer Mile Records & Results

Beer mile records have fallen repetitively over the past few years as the sport has emerged into the mainstream from its underground, sub-culture past. In 2014, the 5-minute barrier was broken for the first time. Now, there are 12 men who have run sub-5 and the world record stands at 4:28. We have not yet seen the first sub-6 by a woman, with the current women's beer mile world record standing at 6:16.

Since 2014, world championship races have brought together the best beer milers around the world to crown world champions and set records. Beer mile records, all-time top performances, and results are summarized below and will continue to be updated.

Current Beer Mile World Record

Corey Bellemore (Canada) - 4:28.1

Corey Bellemore of Canada broke his own Beer Mile world record at the 2021 Beer Mile World Classic with a time of 4:28.1, bettering his 4:33 mark from 2017. Corey ran 4:24 at the 2018 Beer Mile World Classic in Vancover, British Columbia, which would have shattered the world record at the time, but he was disqualified for having slightly too much foam left.

Current Beer 2-Mile World Record

Chris Robertson (USA) - 10:18

The Beer 2-Mile is a daunting feat, to say the least. It is the ultimate test of liver, stomach, and athletic ability for those who don't find the beer mile challenging enough. Instead of the 4 beers, 4 laps of the traditional beer mile, the beer 2-mile consists of 8 beers, 8 laps around a standard 400m track (plus the extra 18 meters to make it a full two miles). A chunder at any point during the race results in a penalty lap added on to the end.

Chris Robertson (USA) shattered the Beer 2-Mile World on September 14, 2020 with a time of 10:18. The once-thought-untouchable Beer 2-Mile World Record of 11:39 previously held by Jim Finlayson of Canada stood no longer.

Robertson had a perfect even-split, going through the first beer mile in 5:09 and closing out beer mile number two in 5:09 as well. He held all 8 beers in until shortly after the finish. You can watch him unleash the foamy goodness at the end of the video below.

Current Chunder Mile World Record

Chris Robertson (USA) - 4:53

Chris Robertson bettered Dale Clutterbuck's chunder mile world record on May 7, 2021 by four seconds with a final time of 4:53. Dale's previous record of 4:57 was set in 2017.

Instead of consuming four 12-ounce beers as in the standard beer mile, the chunder mile requires four imperial pints (20 fluid ounces each) to be chugged out of pint cups. That's nearly double the volume of beer - 80 ounces in the chunder mile versus 48 ounces in the standard beer mile.
