indexA 34-year-old man has broken the world record for running a beer mile in under 5 minutes, that is, run one mile having downed a can of beer at the end of each 400m lap.

James Nielson recorded a time of 4 minutes 57 seconds drinking four cans of 5% Budweiser, breaking the 5-minute threshold and setting a new record.

The previous top spot was held Josh Harris who ran a time of 5 minutes 4 seconds fuelled by Coopers 62 last year in Melbourne.
