The 2008 Krispy Kreme Challenge was a tremendous success. Over 3000 people registered to help raise $20,000 for the North Carolina Children’s Hospital. Both numbers more than double last year’s marks. We would like to again thank all of our sponsors, as well as the volunteers and participants that made this event possible.

A final, accurate registration count, donation amount, and Challenger race times will be posted soon.

Congrats to ToniAnn Marini for being our 1000th registrant. This is simply incredible–we are well ahead of last year’s registration pace. We can’t wait to see how many people we actually have this year. Keep that number climbing!

800!

Congratulations to Daniel James for being registrant #800! Thanks to all who have registered early. Last year, the 800 mark was reached 4 days before the race. This year, we’ve reached it 12 days before. We look forward to seeing everyone out there on the 26th.

We Broke 500 Registrants!!

I know, I know, its a bit redundant, but its incredible! Registration is starting to pick up and we already broke 500 people. This year’s race is going to be bigger and better than ever so get ready for a great time!

KKC just got healthier

In recent news, Krispy Kreme has just announced that its entire US menu will now be trans-fat free. So, it appears that challengers will be spared the 48g of trans fat that they endured last year. Although it seems to lessen the challenge somewhat, it’s probably a good thing for everyone involved. You can read about it here if you like.
