\u201cYou may notice that I have placed running the Beer Mile* World Record as my second most important goal [in 2014]. Why? It\u2019s simple: That is what people care about. Remember, this is the Oval Office. It is where I conduct my business, and business is only good if people are watching.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cCheck out these two YouTube clips \u2026 The first is the most-viewed video of my win at the 2012 Olympic Trials. 81,000 views. The second is a video of me setting the Beer Mile American Record. 87,000 views. This means that the general public would rather watch me drunkenly stumble around a track than compete for a spot on our U.S. Olympic Team. And if that\u2019s what the people want, you better believe that\u2019s what I\u2019m going to give them.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201c\u2026 To this end, I will be making an attempt on the beer mile world record at some point in 2014. My aim is not simply to break the world record of 5:04.9, but to shatter it and run under the elusive 5-minute mark. The training will be grueling, both on the track and in the bar, but I truly feel this is a record that should be held by an American.\u201d – Nick Symmonds<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
