On a warm and windy night, 24 intrepid runners faced off at Rolly Mills Track in Edmonton for the 2002 Canadian National Beer-Miling Championships. Most notable, reigning World Beer-Miling Champion Scott Jensen was beaten not only by relative unknown Blaine Woodcock but also was unable to hold off the late charge of Solomon Ssenyenge, who outleaned Jensen at the line. Dazed and confused, Jensen immediately talked about hanging up his spikes and referee's jersey and joining the ranks of recreational beer-miling. Conditions: Clear, 24 C, 27% humidity, wind SE22 kmph, 101.0 kPa, 24 km visibiilty, nearly full moon. Results: 1 Blaine Woodcock AB 6:40 2. Solomon Ssenyenge AB 7:12.39 3.
