Kudos and FU to Mikey

Now don't get all excited, Mikey is ok with the title. Let me just tell you why I love and hate Mikey all at the same time for the same reason. For the last 4-5 years Jamie and I have been running the Midvale city 5k (albeit some years better than others). Last year we all participated . Jamie and I both placed in our age group which is not too impressive because Mike and Dave walked it and came in 4th in their age group. This year Dave's been exercising and starting to run a bit (see how slim, trim and panther like he is), and Jamie and I well..... not so much but still figured we could walk run and do ok. So a few days before the race Mikey announces that he might try to run the whole thing. Well, I just happened to mention to him that he probably couldn't run the whole thing because it's a long way. So fast forward to race day... guess who won? Yep, Mikey! Rat Bastard! He not only beat everyone of us, he almost beat my best time in a 5k ever! His time was 30:14! And he was pushing Connor the entire time!


Guess who got the medal? Nope, not Mikey, me!! Ha Ha Ha Ha!!! I got the silver medal in my age group. Mikey placed 4th in his. Too bad Mikey, better luck next year! And watch out cause it's on now. I'm gonna kick your ass (now if I could just lift my leg high enough to do it)! Just kidding babe... you know I love ya and I'm proud of you. Now, I bet you can't clean the garage and finish the bathroom :0 )


Note from Mikey, I will have to add that my body was VERY angry at me the next day. I'm going to try an old remedy of 4 ibuprofen and 10 beers to see if it will help with the hurt.

You guys CRACK ME UP!!! I told Dew I would for sure be kicking his ass if he did that. But then you both get HUGE props from me. I'm pretty sure I could not run around the block if I had to. Michelle you go girl with your silver medal!!!
Hugs!
