What would you do differently?:

dip the doughnuts in water to make them go down quicker

Warm down:

keep for throwing up by walking and not sitting down

I can't believe you did this race.  When you brought it up in the forums, I thought it might be fun, but then some common sense kicked in.

Great Costume.

Great race report! I told wife about this one, and while she generally avoids road trips for runs, your report intrigued her for next year. Heck, I want to come down and race just for the free donuts!

let's just some people didn't make it out of the parking lot where we ate the doughnuts some on purpose and a good plenty lightened their load on the two miles back to the finish....
