Krispy Kreme Challenge
I may have done something stupid. I signed up to run in the 2010 Krispy Kreme Challenge. For all those that are not part of the NC State family or don't have a clue what it is, lemme lay it down for you. Run 2 miles, eat a dozen Krispy Kreme doughnuts, run 2 miles back. In under an hour.
Last year, ESPN was there to cover the festivities, so it's kind of a big deal around here. There were over 6000 runners last year! The event started in 2004 as a dare between some students, and it has quickly caught on. I have wanted to do it for a few years now, but never really had the nerve. Then one night, Erin and I were out to dinner with our bestest friends Andrew (my old college roommate) and Leah, and we started talking about it. Andrew and I decided we would do it, and as soon as I got home I registered online. No turning back now.
While not new to running, I have never run in a race before. And it's gonna be cold because the race is at 8:30am in friggin February! This should be fun. I will post my time, doughnuts ate, and pictures upon the completion

Please turn the camera off while you vomit.
On the positive side, if you do, you certainly won’t be the first one to have.

Don’t turn off the camera. I want video footage when you decide to do this again. “Hey Cheese, let me refresh your memory on why this is a bad idea…”
Best of luck man, and most importantly, have a blast.

Awesome. I’m in, Rebecca’s in, and my neighbor Jon is in. Jon is the only one who has actually ran a race before out of everyone I know. He does marathons.
I’m signed up as a “casual runner” of course. I’m not going over 6 donuts unless for some strange reason I feel like it.

Wow, this sounds insane! I can’t imagine running on a full stomach of Krispy Kremes! Have fun.
