Marathon Training (for beer drinkers)
Over the past year, I’ve learned a little bit about marathon training. And there’s a lot of similarity between running 26.2 miles, and an all night drinking binge.
Well, maybe not that much similarity. But training and conditioning is important.
And that’s why … when I received the special VIP Invitation e-mail from Delirium Cafe in Brussels, announcing the new Delirium Tap Room, I knew I had to make a pilgrammage to Brussels before the end of the year. What better way to celebrate having completed a running marathon than an all night drinking marathon at the new Delirium Tap Room in Brussels, co-located with the Delirium Cafe, Floris Bar and Floris Garden.
According to the e-mail, the Delirium Tap Room opens with 25 unusual and unique tap brews on Friday, December 7. Alas, my schedule doesn’t work for December 7, but I’ll be in London the following week, so I’m working on a plan to take the Eurostar to Brussels on the afternoon of the 14th, and then back on the first train Saturday morning so that I can catch my flight back to the states.
For this all night drinking marathon, I’m wondering if I’ll see some of the strange characters that I saw at the running marathon that I just completed? come to think of it, I think I have seen these folks at the Floris Bar drinking absinthe…
