Like Watching ‘Fear Factor’ In Person… Bleh

Ok, this just makes me too nauseous to even write about it.  Bleh…

Granted, I had a terrible run-in with a hot doughnut back in college, so I’m a bit jaded… 

Bleh…

    HAHAHAH!!! I remember when they started doing this. Yeah it gets a little nauseous for some on the way back. But someone every year wins!!!
    …and then promptly pukes…

    Actually, if i could conciously eat 12 donuts and accept all those grams of fat, I would totally do this.
    I mean you raise money for the Children’s Hospital, meet new people, eat donuts, and exercise.
    Yes you could do any of those things without this challenge, but still the novelty of this idea is priceless.
    Perhaps I should do this, but I would so puke. Oh well. I’m just a Dunkin Donuts kinda guy :)

    Somehow, I’ve never heard of this before… so pardon my laughter, but I find this enormously funny (even though I could never successfully do it). If I didn’t have to work, I’d go hang out downtown to watch!

    Nauseous? Perhaps, but this is for a good cause: All the proceeds go to the Children’s Hospital of North Carolina…and this year, they’ve added a category where you can participate without having to eat the dozen doughnuts if you don’t want to. I did it last year and it’s probably the best race I’ve ever run…and for the record, I didn’t throw up (but wanted to!)

    Making the requirement optional is just a little disappointing. It seems to me that half the appeal is the unique quality of having to suck down twelve piping-hot Krispy Kremes – and anyone that has eaten a hot Krispy Kreme donut knows just how easy it is for one to turn into several very quickly. It’s just the sort of thing that a college student would invent!
    It’s definitely cool to see something like this take off so dramatically, and the fact that it’s all for a good cause makes it even better.

    I can feel my arteries hardening as I sit here reading the race website. How can a hot doughnut be that bad for you?

    Hahaha. I see what you mean but I think they have the optional category for the folks that don’t want their arteries hardened but still want to “enjoy” the experience.
    I think they designate the people that finish the race and eat all 12 doughnuts differently somehow. Perhaps a different color t-shirt.
    The group of studeents organizing the event at State are to be commended for making this event such an awesome tradition. I can’t wait to see everyone’s video footage after the race!
