Experiencing Interruptions?

More Than A Mile

'Four beer, four laps, for the hell of it!'

///

‘More than a Mile’ is a documentary following the lives of a runner and his friend on their six-month journey towards the Beer Mile World Classic.

///

Six months out from representing Australia in the Beer Mile World Classic 2016 (London, UK), a Melbourne based athlete looks to return to the world stage of the beer mile once again in hopes of reaching the next level in the coveted (and quirky) event

To motivate Charlie and Team Australia, a small group of friends lead by a Media Studies teacher will follow the athletes every pint, step and bar hop along the way to the.

Not only do you witness the gratifying experience of representing your country at the highest level but a six-month journey following two twenty something-year-olds finishing what they have always wanted to start.

So much more than a story about beers and running, ‘More Than A Mile’ is an immersive documentary, commenting on societies romance with alcohol, sporting culture and the bridging process into adulthood
