I was going to add my own thoughts, but you seem to be reading my mind.

KSH, do your race and if you keep beating him by larger and larger margins, he may realize the error in his ways. Ignore him when he whines - if you can.

Luckily my husband doesn't have the "I have to be faster than my wife" problem. If he does start, I just tease him by telling him he's got himself a trophy wife and the other guys are all jealous. He knows I"m joking, and he's not seriously upset that I'm faster, but making light of it helps tremendously.
