    There, mike.

     

    A bobcat reference.

    Ultima tastes like failure.

      I held off as long as I could but you really goaded that out of me.

          Maybe this already has been mentioned...

           

          In the pic, it looks like the woman came in first.  In the race results, the man did.  What if this was a chip timed race and they crossed the start line at different times?  It clearly looks like she won in the race photo. 

           

          MTA: Hmm...  Looking at the "gun time" stats, it looks like a tie.  Confirmed?

              He forgot to push his way in front of her at the start.

              It's a 5k. It hurt like hell...then I tried to pick it up. The end.

                For those who are interested in women-only races and didn't believe me that this is an area experiencing huge growth (and profit potential for the orgs doing them), here's another:

                Two things about this race.

                 

                1. That site looks mysteriously like the various Rock N Roll Marathon sites, even though the race org is supposedly in Miami.  And the race is in Honolulu.  Hmmmm. 

                 

                2. Yes, really.  Women only. "The half marathon is a women's only event while the 5K is for all genders."

                  What a jerk.  He couldn't have anticipated where the finish line photographer would be and moved further over to the side to get out of the picture?

                   

                  Nope, not a gentleman that one.

                    She needs to pull her pants up.

                      Plus, what is that obscene gesture he is making with his hand and his wrist? I'm not familiar with that one. Is that Italian?

                      It's a 5k. It hurt like hell...then I tried to pick it up. The end.

                        Dude she's a tiger.  You try pulling a tiger's pants up and see what happens.

                          That dude's shirt looks suspiciously like Trent's Monkey training shirt (absent the gold) , anyone who runs with that on can't be a gentleman.

                            Good point. Although on second look, can those really be called pants? I'm leaning towards body paint.

                              I think she ran naked bottomed and that flowery bit is a remnant of the girly finish line tape.

                                You think pulling a tiger's pants up is dicey -- try pulling 'em down and see what happens.
