Donuts, Snow, and MUD

     
Sooo... Did y'all hear the big news? I was the Krispy Kreme Challenge winner! I ran the whole 4 miles and ate all 12 donuts! There were 6,000 runners today!

NOT!!!

Haha. Honestly, I did terrible. I haven't ran in forever, the hills were HARD, and it was freezing. Literally, freezing.

I ran about 1.75 miles up and ended up walking part of the way to grab a box of donuts. Then my sister and I walked most of the 2 miles back. I may have had a bad run but we had a blast today! I did eat a donut on the way back and it was sooo sweet! I haven't had something that sweet in forever!

My mom was a trooper holding the squirrel the whole time at the race. The squirrel was pretty miserable in the cold. Thanks mom for being such a good Nana.

The prize.


After the race we all came back to my sister's apartment, got hot showers and headed out for some grub and shopping!

As we were getting ready it started **SNOWING**!

Of course we had to play in it and take some pictures!

My sister and the squirrel.


Me and the squirrel.


While we were playing the squirrel fell in the mud!

Let me tell you how upset she was...

Well you can see for yourself!

Completely miserable.

Nothing a little Disney store couldn't fix!


We had an amazing time today and definitely need to do things like that more often.


Tomorrow is back to normal! Hope you guys are having an awesome weekend!
Oh and I will definitely be doing a Bobo's giveaway. Stay tuned! :)

Awwww...poor Squirrel! I'm glad she got a Disney store treat. Is that a Tigger stuffed animal that she picked out?

You should probably be *happy* you didn't win the race if it meant eating all those donuts at once! ;)

When you said winner and 12 donuts I nearly choked! Thank goodness you did not win 'cause you would have been pretty sick afterwards. I am sure one donut was enough. Congrats for running even though it was cold out. The squirrel is precious as always. Glad to hear she got over the mud incident. I'll be on the lookout for the Bobo giveaway!!

Sounds like you had a great time! I can't imagine eating 12 donuts! The Squirrel is too cute smiling all muddy :)

Awww, she's SO CUTE. She puts a smile on my face whenever I see her.

Well even though you didn't win, you were still a winner for getting out there in the cold weather and giving it your best shot. And heck, no other race will handout DONUTS afterwards, so it was worth it I'm sure! I despise hills, so I completely understand walking most of it.

Have a great Sunday!

I love the Squirrel's attitude! If only everyone could feel that way over a little "mud."

That race sounds like fun! But not nearly as fun as falling in the mud!

That sounds like a fun race. I'm going to see if my sister (who goes to NC State) will do it with me next year.
