Anyone Else Motivated by (Friendly-ish) Competition?

At first I wrote out this long story explaining everything, but I've decided to cut it and get straight to the point:
I'm essentially looking for other competitive people/jerks like myself who may be interested in forming a group and/or being friends to challenge and to motivate each other. Though I adore MFP for the tracking and the community, I know that I need some friendly (or jerky, up to you) competition to get me going.
If you're not that kind of person, then that's totally okay and I wish you luck!
However, if you get motivated by announcing to others that you just ran 10k or that you lost 2lbs this week or that you're down a dress size (or whatever!) AND/OR also get motivated by seeing that others have done something similar, then please give me a shout. I need you.
[If this kind of group already exists, please feel free to link it!]
And I realise that technically everyone does this, but I'm looking for fellow competitive people who instead of getting unmotivated by this, find it even more worth their while.
TL;DR: I want you to shove it in my face that you're amazing so that I get motivated to do better than you. (Even if it's not possible because you really are the best.)
