Following on from our earlier article about the Krispy Kreme Challenge, Abby's Mom has kindly allowed us to show you her photos of the event. What could be the future of competitive eating (a combination of fitness and eating prowess), this event is like no other. Pleasure, pain, and doughnuts!

In 2004, NC State Sophomore Chris McCoy came up with a challenge. He would gather some friends at the NC State belltower and begin a run toward downtown Raleigh. His jog would take him two miles downhill to the Raleigh krispy Kreme bakery. There they would each consume 1 dozen of the legendary hot glazed doughnuts. The group would then run back to the belltower to finish the race. All in less than an hour.
