Beer and exercise: only in Wisconsin

Obviously, when you're exercising, it's important to keep yourself hydrated. So, when you're running a race, it's a god idea to drink plenty of water, Gatorade, etc.
Unless you're in Wisconsin, where it's customary to down a couple beers instead.
Ok, ok, so not everyone in Wisconsin likes to drink while they work out, but that's part of the fun at the annual Beer Belly Two -- a 2-mile charity race with "a lot of beer stops," that's geared more towards good-time enthusiasts than anyone that would consider themselves an athlete.
While it may not be getting anyone in shape, the race has raised $350,000 for local charities since it first began 19 years ago, so I'd say it's certainly doing some good.
