Jack is Yellow

Jack believes that my challenge against him for the marathon is unfair since I am so obviously superior to him in regards to Max VO2 Levels. Basically my blood delivers oxygen to my muscles quicker and more efficiently than his. To put it in layman's terms, Jack's blood is the US Postal Service, I am FedEx.

Due to the aforementioned reasons Jack rejected my challenge on the marathon and decided that it would be more fair to compete against me in the Marine Corps PFT. I accept his challenge because I know that I will defeat him. So sometime before Paul goes back to Bloomington, IN the three brothers will compete in USMC PFT, with the highest scorer, likely me, proclaiming superiority.

Here's what I've been up to in preparation:
45 minute runs) in the rice patties known as Ault Park Trails.
Quite a few pushups.
Even more situps.
Med Ball aided squats.
(I'd give more detail, but I don't remember Patton telling Rommel about US battle preparations)

With that I will leave music video, the song is about Daniel Larusso, but in many respects it could have been written about me:

The challenge

I am shorter than my brothers. I am younger than my brothers. They both have girlfriends, have interest in accounting, play basketball, and do a lot of cool things. However, I am better than my brothers. I am not arrogant, I just know that to be a true fact, Paul and Jack are not as good as I am.

Paul is on a quest to become "skinny strong" a concept I do not understand, but you can read all about it on his blog. He is trying to pump himself up, being more in shape, that is good and all but I am better. Here's my challenge:
Before Paul leaves home and goes back to college I want to compete against him in the Marine Corps Physical Fitness Test, to see who gets the higher score. I am confident I will beat him.

Jack is on a quest to run a marathon, all because it is there. He is chronicling his journey on his own blog. He might be trying to qualify for Boston, I'm not sure all I know is that I will run the same marathon, and I will beat him.

This is also the first time the challenge has been given. Due to my obvious superiority I do not know if they will accept. If they don't accept then I will be using this blog to question their masculinity until they do accept. If they do accept then this will be used so the American People can find out how they, like me, can be better than their brothers.
