User ID: 142494 Canada 02/09/2009 04:57 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | $35,000 raised for charity in Krispy Kreme race featuring donut-eating, 6-km run RALEIGH, N.C. - It's a challenge, all right. More than 5,000 runners ran three kilometres to a Krispy Kreme shop in downtown Raleigh on Saturday, ate a dozen glazed doughnuts each and returned to North Carolina State University in less than an hour. That's 2,400 calories and 144 grams of fat consumed while burning about 400 calories during the run. The student-run Krispy Kreme Challenge raised about $35,000 for the North Carolina Children's Hospital. The event began on a dare among college friends in 2004. Then-freshman Ben Gaddy won the first race by beating nine guys in about a half-hour. His reward? A terrible stomach ache. [ link to www.cbc.ca] |
