Annie, Ruthann and I (friends from my grad program) had a blast at the Tour de Donut Sat in AF. You ride 21 miles in three 7 mile loops. After loops one and two you can stop at a table and eat as many donuts as you want, and a volunteer records it on your race number. You get three minutes off for every donut you eat. I thought I could eat a ton, but only ended up eating 8. It is so hard to eat them when you are exercising, they start getting really gross and I felt like throwing up. I kept thinking how good Parley, Scott or William would do, I bet they could eat at least 10. But the Tour de Donut Champion ate 28 donuts! He was also the King of Donuts (guy who ate the most and still finished). I saw him smash two together and stuff them down like a pro. He had a hard time getting on his bike after eating 21 on his first stop. He killed everyone else in the men's category, though so don't think everyone ate that many. Most guys ate around 6.
I was so mad later to find out that the Queen of Donuts only ate nine! I could have eaten two more if I wasn't trying to be fast. I ended up getting 5th in women. If only I had eaten a couple more!
