Lewis Kent has another victory to add to his running resume — winner of “Ellen’s Beer Mile Race.”

The 21-year-old from Mississauga, Ont., who has rocketed to fame since he broke the beer mile world record last month, was a guest on Tuesday’s episode of The Ellen DeGeneres Show.

Kent raced Ellen staff member Andy Zenor in a beer race outside the Burbank, Calif., studio. The Canadian handily won the race that finished on stage, and received a gaudy trophy topped with a beer mug from DeGeneres, plus a year’s supply of his favourite beer.

“Lewis Kent is the world champion in a sport that combines drinking and running … or as I call it, a typical Tuesday night,” DeGeneres said in her introduction.

In a beer mile race, runners chug a beer then run a lap. The process is repeated for each of the four laps of a mile.
