00:00Man, this is a great, this is an absolutely great story.
00:0299.5 QIK, it's Mark and Melanie, Tampa Bay's morning crew.
00:04So this kid, he's running a 5K race.
00:07You know, it's just every weekend there's a 5K in some town somewhere, right?
00:11Every day, basically, yeah.
00:12Well, next to the 5K, they do this a lot.
00:14There's also a 10K, which is separated by one small little corridor.
00:18So if you go to this turn, you're entering the 10K.
00:21If you stay on this track, you're just doing the 5K.
00:24Well, this kid's running the 5K, but he accidentally makes a turn and enters the 10K race.
00:29Oh, no.
00:30And wins.
00:32What?
00:32And wins.
00:33He wasn't even sure he was going to win the 5K, and then he goes to the 10K accidentally and wins.
00:37Listen to him talk about it.
00:37I was like, oh, this is really long.
00:40This is a really long 5K.
00:41This is not as usual.
00:43Like, okay, maybe he's having a bad race.
00:45It happens.
00:46No big deal.
00:47Maybe he got lost.
00:48I don't know.
00:49Maybe worse could happen.
00:51Who knows?
00:52So then I told him, like, you're in so much trouble.
00:54You can't believe you did this.
00:55And he's like, I didn't do it on purpose.
00:57I accidentally just won it, and they've been practicing for a long time.
01:01I just was really surprised that I did that.
01:04What a great story.
01:05That's awesome.
01:05He winds up winning it.
01:06He's like, man, this is the longest 5K ever.
01:09It's like, yeah, it's two 5Ks that you're running right there.
01:12And you're winning, kid.
01:13I accidentally won it.
01:13Yeah.
01:14And you're winning.
01:15Wow.
01:15I was trying to equate that to, like, other parts of life.
01:18Like, what would it be like accidentally running a 5K or accidentally running a 10K and winning it when you didn't even think you'd win the 5K?
01:25That'd be like, I don't know, accidentally going out for dinner but then winding up staying for eight hours.
01:31It would kind of be like accidentally running a 5K when I just meant to sit on my couch and watch Netflix.
01:37So just accidentally entering the 5K and then running it?
01:42Yeah, accidentally entering it.
01:43Yep.
01:44It would be me drinking a six-pack and then actually it was a 12-pack.
01:49Really?
01:51That's my mistake.
01:52Well, that's what I was going to say.
01:53Like, going out to dinner with your friends and then it actually turns, accidentally turns into shots afterwards.
01:58Oh, yeah.
01:59It's like going to brunch and then next thing you know.
02:01It's not brunch.
02:02You weren't ever going to eat brunch.
02:04No.
02:05Yeah, you drink brunch.
02:06Yeah.
02:06All right, so great story.
02:08This kid wins a 10K.
02:10I love how his mom's like, you're in trouble.
02:12What?
02:13I was getting in trouble.
02:14She was worried sick about him.
02:16He's over there dominating the world.
02:19Accidentally winning 10Ks.
02:20This kid's life, man.
02:22That's awesome.
02:23All right, Texas.
02:24What have you accidentally done but it worked out in your favor?
02:26What have you accidentally find yourself and you're like, whoa, I'm doing it.
02:28I'm winning.
