Today Friday May 25th I have a shot at redemption. Many of you remember 2 months ago when my wife beat me in our family marathon. Basically we run 1 mile, shoot 50 baskets, then swim 3 laps.
Well I have been training for the last 4 weeks lifting weights 3 days a week and doing some cardio. Tomorrow at noon we are doing it again with some new stakes in effect. The winner of tomorrows Triathalon gets:
Choices for places to eat for the next month
Orders food for the loser for the next month
Chooses activities we are doing in Las Vegas in June
So last time readers predicted that my wife would win and they were correct… who do you think will win this time?

“Orders food for the loser for the next month”
Now that sounds like it could be fun for the winner

With all the training I’m betting on you this time…
Your users demand video!
You have to be able to shoot the pill… can’t put the pill in the basket… can’t dominate… the Doc is strong like the Ukraine
Come on, go for a real triathlon!
Thanks for that great interview you posted. I just got done listening to it. Lots of good info.
sorry shoe but the odds in the poll don’t look good.
Sorry Shoe, I’m still rooting for your wife to kick your butt.
Weights and cardio? If I were you I would have been practicing the basketball shots. I have a feeling that’s where the victor will be decided.
I would hope you do quite well there but despite that I still voted for your wife.
You still suck
My wife has also more energy then me even I was some time ago (8 years) profi basketball player.
Come on.. stick with what your good at right?
People seems not so confident on you when it’s about beating your wife…
Wow, so many haters voted no. I think you can do it this time. So did you end up eating Panera Bread all month?
Ummm Shoe, the Real Men Don’t Lose To Their Wife Association called, they want their membership back if you don’t win this one…Good Luck!
Don
you can do it buddy! I’m pretty sure of that
Make us proud, Shoe (my money’s on you this time)!
Shoemoney for some odd reason I thought of you as quite the athlete….;)
Ok Shoe, my comment bids on you but my browser just voted for Mrs.Shoemoney : )
I won’t be burned twice, my vote goes to the wife this time!
Duuuuuuude,
My money is on the Mrs. I watched as she flew by you last time and she is just mentally tougher than you are!
Hope you all have a blast and congrats on the workout schedule!
I think Shoe will take this. Not only a lot at stake but he can’t take that embarrassment again.
Somedays she would be happy, but she better watch out if she makes you mad.
Just cause he has guns doesn’t mean he can beat his wife at this now..
Good luck!
You tired old chrome dome. You couldn’t piss uphill if you tried.. but I’ll vote for ya. Someone’s gotta side with the underdog !
Oh and just in case Mrs Shoemoney reads this.. HE’s gonna whoop ya’ass !! (and then of course ya gonna whoop him right back but lets not go there)
You have got to get a videographer! You could make a million asking for $1 to view the vid… I know I would pay it *grins*
Well you can beat anyone in making money.. but running?? naaayyy..
All the best
I cast my vote for “No-You still suck” like the 75% of the sane people
