1st Annual Doughman Competition

Image
On May 24th, fourteen teams competing in the first annual Doughman Competition raised about $2,000 for Seeds. The first leg of the race involved eating a breakfast special at Fosters. The first racer got away from the table in 1.5 minutes, grabbed his bike at the fence behind Guglehupf, and pedaled off down Frances St. The last racer pedaled off 15 minutes later. The second leg was the lunch wrap at Nosh and a run. Third leg was a chili dog at Luther's followed by a run and paddle across the Duke swimming pool. The fouth team member got tagged at the end of the pool, raced to Dain's on 9th street for bacon cheese fries, and ran downtown to Locopops on the CCB square. All for team members met up at Locopops, where everyone had to finish a pop and then raced together to the finish line at the farmer's market. Fastest time was 1.20. Racers had lots of fun and got to know Durham better. We had 6 volunteers from TLNA to help. some links: http://doughman.giving. offic
