There once was two little brothers that were the exactly the opposite of each other there names were Michael and Larry. They both had the opposite of taste in life, so Michael was a very tall, around 6'2 and skinny but his brother was not he was the average height of most 8th graders but he was very unhealthy. One day Michael had went to get the mail when he found a flier that read "On November 5, we will have our four annual bike-a-thon. One that the Michael knew he was going to sign up but the next day he was ranting about he was going to win, so Larry overheard and had taken the flier to sign up. They both got their in the mail numbers when Michael started to make fun of Larry because he said he was overweight and had no chance to win but Larry started to train the week before the race.
It was the day of the race and Larry had lost 5 pounds so he knew if he set his mind to it he would be able to stick with his brother and others. They had started at 9 o'clock in the morning and it was a 13.1 mile bike ride so he told himself first or last he was going to do it. His brother started only two minutes before him because of when he signed up so he knew he had to pass many others to get to him. Larry pushing himself sped ahead of them and rode right next to him brother so when Michael looked over he started to be very angry so he sped ahead. Larry who still was having a hard time to keep going that long keep with it and at the last mile he saw that Michael was right ahead of him. Pushing himself Larry went right up to Michael and they started to go a little faster to bet the other but they were at the finish line and finished right at the same time. Michael amazed after the race told Larry that he was sorry and told him that he had just wanted to win so they forgave and then want home to be friends again.
