Caught the leader with about a mile to go. Sat on him for 800, then blew his effing doors off and beat him by a whole second.
Won a $50 gift card and a prime rib for two (plus an appetizer).
Anything else you would like to know?

1. Race distance and time?
2. Did people give you dirty looks or weird comments?
3. Did anything go wrong at the race, like bad directions?
Time and distance?

8k, just over 33min (6'4" 205lbs) Like I said, BLEW HIS FRIGGIN DOORS OFF.
Nah, the guy I beat cooled down with me. Good guy. Actually, a few women of African heritage commented on my muscular legs, but I am used to that.
No, just that they started us from the wrong fire hydrant, so we ran just over 5.1mi instead just under 5.
Did you "Gobble gobble, MFer" across the line?
What shoes did you wear?

Good question, Beavis! Skechers GoMeb Speed 5.
The shoe that is just like the LT3, but better in every way.

Nope. But, it being loosely Halloween-themed, I did later consider "Trick or Treat, B!tches!" Alas, the moment had passed... much like I passed the competition.

Good for you! A legitimate victory with no question mark against your performance! Well done...

Your mile pace was around 6:40.
Your BMI is 25.0.
That is actually quite impressive for someone of your BMI. That converts to approximately a 20-minute 5k, which is godly fast by hobby jogger standards.
Congrats for being crowned King of the Hobby Joggers!
Did you sit on him so that you could admire his glutes?
Do you eat prime rib often and if so is it the ketogenic diet that allowe you to crush hobby joggers?

Thank you!
I would like to thank my maternal grandfather for being rather rotund. I would also like to thank all of the fast people in town for sleeping in. And finally, I would like to thank my smokin' hot wife. Just because.

Make no mistake... if they ever offer them in a 14, I will own a pair... need all the help I can get if I am ever gonna BQ...
But I wouldn't waste any of their magical pop on a local 8k.

Nah. He saw plenty of them over the last 800m.

I do not. Looking forward to a rare treat tonight at one of our finest local chain restaurants.
Not really keto, but I do try to limit carbs as a rule... mainly because I am liable to accidentally eat more than my share of them the first time someone says, "Reeces".
Halloween is generally not kind to me.

Yep, running in Vaporflys would make it outright doping though... [sarcasm] ... LOL
You are funny with your “obsession”;)

Because everybody loves chocolate. Most kids do at least. Low-cost, sweet, satisfying. Can't go wrong with that.
