Late last year I registered for my first road race in about 10 years- the Krispy Kreme Challenge.  2.5 miles from the NC State Belltower to Krispy Kreme, a dozen donuts, and then 2.5 miles back (Race Map at MapMyRun).  Race day is now less than a week away- Saturday, February 9.

Make no mistake, the K2C is a ‘bucket list’ race- with calorie laden glazed “treats” the raison d’être.  Howevah… the K2C is five weeks away from my next race- and a dozen donuts could have some… interesting consequences to my training plan.  For the moment I am leaning toward the wimp-out route:  snacking on one or two donuts mid-race before turning back to campus.  Good strategy, or too timid?  Regardless I am excited about my first post-resolution road race.  

Maybe next year I will go all out, race with a geektastic costume and finish off the entire dozen en route to a PR.
