Krispy Kreme Challenge Registration Opens

kkchallenge[1] It’s that time again! At 8:30 am on February 6, the 6th Krispy Kreme challenge (aka. Insanathon) will begin. The event benefiting the NC Children’s Hospital involves running two miles from the N.C. State Belltower to Krispy Kreme on Peace Street. Participants will then eat one dozen donuts, and run back to the Belltower; all in under an hour.

You can be a part of the anticipated 6,000 involved by registering online . This year there are three categories. Challengers are required to each the full box of a dozen donuts. The winner usually times in at around 24 minutes to complete the 2 mile run, downing of a dozen donuts, and 2 mile return run. Casual Runner is a category which does not require participants to finish the dozen donuts, and allows participants to walk if they wish. Supporter is a third category for those who do not want to run or walk. It doesn’t not include any donuts either, however like the other two categories, does include a race t-shirt.

    I’ve been wondering how they will accommodate the crowds on race day and the start with the construction on Hillsborough Street and around the Bell Tower.
