A race involving doughnuts? Surely, you jest!
I kid you not. If you are unaware of the Krispy Kreme Challenge, it is a 5K race that takes place to benefit the North Carolina Children’s Hospital. And it involves DOUGHNUTS.
The way the challenge works is that you have to run 1/2 of the race, at which point you will receive a dozen of the deliciously glazed Krispy Kreme donuts. You have to eat them. All of them. And then run the rest of the race.
A lesser runner would be puking their guts up. I am not a runner, I’m an eater. I think I could take it.
The only thing I see that might be an obstacle is that whole running thing 🙁 The REAL competitors try to finish the race – include donut inhalation – in under an hour.
I’d need that long to get the glaze off of my fingers.
It’s too late to compete in this year’s challenge, but keep your eyes on this website to register for next year. I hear the race fills up quickly every year. I mean, why wouldn’t it, right?
