BRAGGING RIGHTS
I wish that I had pictures to share this monumental event! On Saturday morning a group of seven guys got together to celebrate the end of Andy Gregar's bachelor-hood at Tradewinds restaurant in Mishawaka.
The place is known for their all you can eat pancake breakfast for just under $6.00. Thinking that my 6-1, 168 pound frame had little to offer against the "competition" I found myself more than just hanging with the "heavy weights" of the crew.
Somehow and in someway I managed to polish off six pancakes (rather large ones I might add) to go along with my two scrambled eggs and five strips of bacon. Yes, I claimed victory by one pancake over the soon to be married Andy Gregar! The bragging rights were mine. For a brief moment I was transformed back to my days in Senior High Youth Group when I knocked down 14 pieces french toast during our annual winter retreat! I still have my eating prowess more than 10 years after my first eating competition.
Although I would be remised if I didn't note that my metabolism was working ultra-fast during the morning after completing a 9.75 mile run earlier in the day. Just a minor detail!

Maybe eating all that food in India was preparing you for the Pandaquake Challenge! You never know how God can work... ;)
