WEBVTT - Wine Marathon!

0:00:00.320 --> 0:00:03.960
<v Speaker 1>And this is a marathon. I might actually do. Marathon

0:00:04.040 --> 0:00:07.640
<v Speaker 1>training plans don't usually include drinking wine, but that's exactly

0:00:07.720 --> 0:00:11.040
<v Speaker 1>what some runners are doing for a marathon in France,

0:00:11.280 --> 0:00:14.600
<v Speaker 1>Marathon day Medoc. I'm sure I said that wrong, or

0:00:14.640 --> 0:00:19.160
<v Speaker 1>excuse me, marathon do medoc. This is from the Wall

0:00:19.200 --> 0:00:22.439
<v Speaker 1>Street Journal. Twenty six point two miles you run through

0:00:22.680 --> 0:00:29.760
<v Speaker 1>Bordeaux vineyards, and you stop twenty times to drink wine, cheese, oysters, day,

0:00:29.800 --> 0:00:33.240
<v Speaker 1>Croissant's ice cream because there are pairings with the wine

0:00:33.240 --> 0:00:36.480
<v Speaker 1>that you're drinking, all in an eighties costume, because that's

0:00:36.520 --> 0:00:41.640
<v Speaker 1>the themes. Im wow, people have already signed up for this.

0:00:41.720 --> 0:00:45.519
<v Speaker 1>It's sold out. It's the event's fortieth running, and there

0:00:45.560 --> 0:00:47.599
<v Speaker 1>is a wait list that is three times longer than

0:00:47.600 --> 0:00:50.400
<v Speaker 1>the field. I love it. I can do that without running.

0:00:51.440 --> 0:00:53.200
<v Speaker 1>Don't you already get sick when you're I would think

0:00:53.320 --> 0:00:57.720
<v Speaker 1>twenty wine stops. Yeah, so basically every other mile you stop,

0:00:57.840 --> 0:01:01.160
<v Speaker 1>or every almost every mile you stop and eat cheese

0:01:01.680 --> 0:01:02.800
<v Speaker 1>and drink wine. No.

0:01:03.560 --> 0:01:06.600
<v Speaker 2>I would to Southern Illinois that time, and we went

0:01:06.640 --> 0:01:08.800
<v Speaker 2>to the winery and we kept just going places that was.

0:01:09.319 --> 0:01:11.840
<v Speaker 1>That was just a wine tasting. There was and there

0:01:11.920 --> 0:01:17.200
<v Speaker 1>was a driver. Yeah, that's my mate. There was There

0:01:17.240 --> 0:01:19.720
<v Speaker 1>was a man in a van that drove us. We

0:01:19.800 --> 0:01:23.839
<v Speaker 1>barely had to walk. I know it. Some wine and cheese.

0:01:23.880 --> 0:01:27.000
<v Speaker 1>I had a great time. Okay. I mean if I

0:01:27.000 --> 0:01:28.840
<v Speaker 1>if a marathon runner, I guess that's pretty good. But

0:01:28.880 --> 0:01:31.160
<v Speaker 1>that's like the Taco Bell fifteen k or whatever it is,

0:01:31.160 --> 0:01:36.000
<v Speaker 1>where you have to like caps everywhere you go and

0:01:36.000 --> 0:01:38.959
<v Speaker 1>and somehow be able to run. But I would if

0:01:39.000 --> 0:01:40.800
<v Speaker 1>I were a marathon runner, you run a mile, you

0:01:40.880 --> 0:01:42.320
<v Speaker 1>drink wine, I'd be hammered.
