In shape vs. FPWBFM

So...you might be wondering why I'm holding my two brother's hands and why they are wearing such incredibly short shorts...well, It's because they are confident, competing warriors.

Benson Brandon

So Brandon was named the PFWBFM (pudgy fast white boy from Mesa) from his track brothers when he ran in highschool because he is naturally ridiculously fast. He placed very well in state (I think 2nd in relay and high in others) anyways... he has put on a few...well, quite a few since those glory days (I can't talk :) but he still has the natural quickness, while Benson is not naturally built with the same sprinter abilities but is in the best shape of his life running at least 5-ish or so miles daily. So they talked up email trash while Benson was in China and when he returned...this is what had been built up.


People came from near and far to see (here are the few who opted for bleachers instead of field side line)

Cotter and Gage cheered tirelessly (and also raced afterwards...naturally, that one was a tie)

Brandon taking his warm up jog very seriously

More sobriety...

So who do you think won?... (Many put the vote on Benson cause he got lighter in China)

But in the end Brandon got him by a hair. It was a really close end at the 100 meter line. (I will try to locate the ending line picture from someone and add that one for you to see). It was intense!
