Weight Loss Contest? You wanna be thin and a better runner, right?

So there is lots of smack talking going on leading into The Sweet H20 50K this weekend in Lithia Springs, GA.  Thats good - I think there should be.  This seems to be the type of event where runners try to "race" and not just run. 

In the midst of all the trash talking a weight loss challenge was brought up and started on Facebook.  You want in on the action?  Come on and join in.  It officially starts up on 4/18 and I'm sure the details will be ironed out then.  A percentage based contest format will probably be used to make it fair.

So far a 16 pack of a E-Gels from Crank Sports is up for the winner.

Sounds like a great way for me to actually win something for a change!
