A couple days late… A similar running event is held out here… the Krispy Kreme challenge. Run two miles, eat one dozen Krispy Kreme donuts, run two miles. Puking = DQ. They had 3000+ runners this year. http://blogs.newsobserver.com/joemiller/index.php?title=krispy_kreme_challenge&more=1&c=1&tb=1&pb=1

I’m a couple days late commenting, but I thought you should know about the MassBike Bike Festival + Pie Race. After the race, you get to eat Ribs and BBQ from Redbones.

from http://www.massbike.org/news/bikefestival_2007.htm

The Pie Race! presented by NEBC (6.5 miles)
A short race against the clock with a unique twist: three “pie stops” (two along the way and one at the finish) where you will dismount your bike and eat a slice of pie! A test of not just your legs but your stomach, with excellent prizes to reward you for your daring. Please note the Pie Race is limited to the first 60 registrants, so sign up now! Click here for a press release from our first-ever Pie Race in 2005.

For proper training you need to get a DVD that was filmed about the St. Louis version of Tour de Donut.

Somehow, after reading more of these posts, the image of Mr. Creosote from Monty Pyton’s Meaning of Life appears in my head.
Maitre d’: “Good evening sir and how are we today?”
Mr. Creosote: “Better.”
Maitre d’: “Better?”
Mr. Creosote: “Better get a bucket. I’m gonna throw up.”

Dear Susan, wife of Fatty,

I think Elden needs a pit crew for this one….to operate the video camera at both stops, and then post to YouTube.

Elden, There will be others gunning for negative time in this race. You will need to set a tough goal, to be competetive. I suggest shooting for -30 minutes.

I feel nauseous just reading about this. Almost as nauseous as when I read about the guy who accidentally dipped his bib straps in the goo at the bottom of a Port-o-Let. Come to think of it, I suspect both of these horrors will be converging in Utah.

And if they are Krispy Kreme Donuts you can really put them down. As you said they are full of air… so the strategy is to squish each one flat and they go down fast. We have a Krispy Kreme donut run here in North Carolina(home of Krispy Kreme). It’s a four mile run. You run two miles (downhill) from the NC State Bell Tower to the Krispy Kreme in downtown Raleigh. Each runner then has to eat a dozen donuts and run the two miles back (uphill) to the bell tower. Puking is allowed.
Maybe you should come down for this next year!
