The Doughman

Just in case anyone thought these combined eating/bike racing events were just an FGBC thing. Check out Durham's own Doughman



Here's the official description of the race:
Have you ever wanted to eat an order of bacon cheese fries and run 2 miles only to have to eat more food? The Doughman is the world's premier team relay quadrathlon--combining competitive eating with a traditional triathlon. Teamwork. Local food. All wrapped in a perfect philanthropic package.

✦Four team members are required to start the race. However, if anyone would like to attempt the race alone please contact us for information.
✦The race consists of eating from a local restaurant followed by either a bike ride, a run and/or an aquatic activity.
✦each team is required to supply their own bike.
✦all riders MUST have a helmet.
✦Obey all traffic laws.
✦Vomiting is strictly discouraged.
✦Have Fun! Costumes are Encouraged.
Right on. Too bad I'm already back in Winnipeg by the time it happens.
