Do I have to eat all 12 donuts?
No. Finishing all 12 donuts is only for individual competitors that are competing seriously. Casual competitors may eat any amount of donuts before heading to the finish line. Teams will split the a box of 12 donuts. All competitors will have their names entered for raffles so please stick around!
Will I be disqualified if I throw up?
No. We can't technically stop you from throwing up, but please don't make yourself throw up. If you are worried, try the team or casual competition.
Do I have to run to support this fundraising event?
No. You may register as a supporter and simply get an event t-shirt.
Can I register on race day?
You can register on race day, but we cannot guarantee that there will be enough shirts and donuts.
Where does all the collected money go?
All proceeds, after event costs, will go to providing the Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh new furniture and toys. Our goal is a contribution of $5,000.
What is there to do after the race?
Throughout the entire event, we will be providing music and refreshments at the finish line. All participants will be included in several raffles after the race has ended.
What kind of donuts will we be eating?
The donuts provided will all be Original Glazed Krispy Kreme Doughnuts.
Where did you get this crazy idea for a race?
We read about a very successful event called the Krispy Kreme Challenge. For 2009, they already have over 5,000 participants! Last year they raised $10,000 for the North Carolina Children's Hospital.
Goal: $5,000
Total: $5,219
