Volunteering at the 2010 Krispy Kreme Challenge this morning there were 6000 people running, watch the video! The Krispy Kreme Challenge is an annual charity event at North Carolina State University in Raleigh, N.C.

The Krispy Kreme Challenge is not affiliated with the Krispy Kreme company. The Krispy Kreme Challenge actually started as a fraternity stunt and grew into a major fund raising event. All profits are donated to the North Carolina Children’s Hospital.

To complete the Krispy Kreme Challenge, participants start at the iconic NC State Belltower on Hillsborough Street, run two miles to the Krispy Kreme store of Raleigh, eat one dozen doughnuts (totaling 2,400 calories and 144 grams of fat), and run back to the Belltower, all under 1 hour.
