Good George Virtual Reality Beer Mile (New Zealand)

Organizers

Part of PB Festival — New Zealand's everyday fitness and wellness festival at Claudelands Events Centre, Hamilton.


Two heats (men's and women's), 15 spots each. Free to enter — entry includes a free Saturday day pass to PB Festival.


Running to the official Beer Mile ruleset with two adaptations: Good George Virtual Reality (non-alcoholic, 330ml cans) replaces the standard 5% ABV minimum, and vomiting results in immediate disqualification rather than a penalty lap. Results are unofficial.


Course: outdoor track at Claudelands Events Centre, Hamilton. Mixed surface (approx. 50% concrete, 50% grass).
