so i've been working on my cupcake consumption for the last few years and today it paid off. About 2 weeks ago, our resident champ Kara asked me if i would be her partner in the cupcake eating contest. i was so honored but then i became nervous. i know she is competitive and ALWAYS wins these sorts of things. As the day approached, i became a little nervous about letting her down. Especially since i was hearing stories of Chris B eating 2 entire pies by himself. I've done 3 triathlons this year. last year did the marathon. I've competed in numerous tennis tournaments, swim meets, water polo meets, fencing tournaments, and even a few dance competitions. Not once was i more nervous than today. I heard people saying "look at sean, his hands are shaking". I think maybe i was afraid kara would kick my ass if I let her down. Turns out, she was worried about letting me down. Fortunately, she coached me on the technique of eating half a cupcake and a sip of water at a time. turned out pretty well for us. We placed second just behind the youth heat. I felt great afterwards and even had one of Joe's bratwursts. i haven't eaten since and am a little disgusted with myself now. tomorrow, i have plans to run 12 miles on an empty stomach. Maybe that will make up for at least one cupcake. Kara was impressive today and i'm so glad i got to be on her team. I'm just now ready for more food 8 hours later. Oh, and i did FGB too. My butt, shoulders, and forearms were hurtin like mad from Friday's lunge/push press beat down so i had to reach in the cabinet for some vitamin i this morning.
