What is The Race?
1.
An ongoing competition between dating couples, as observed by their friends, to see which couple can gain the most weight since the beginning of their relationship. Usually caused by no longer needing to look attractive for potential dates.
One may often notice, after a couple breaks up, they drop out of The Race and return to slimmer figures.
Friend 1: Did you see how fat Adam and Julie have gotten since they started dating?
Friend 2: Yeah, they've definitely joined The Race. Though Maria and Jack have been making a comeback since swim season ended and the dining hall started serving ice cream again.
