Mike Hess Chases Down Potential Wife

Helga Paerson, a mid rated Swedish runner in the F25-29 class, was overtaken by an American of swedish descent, Michael Hess, 29, from Fresno, California, and considered for marriage in the tradition of all marathoners the world over: by the tossing of fruit flavored electrolyte filled beverages on one another from a disposable paper cup held in the right hand. Unfortunately Helga melted upon the first toss and was summarily eliminated from competition. Click HERE to see more photos of Mike running in Australia's Gold Coast Marathon!
