The Running Thread - 2018

Her neck would be so sore from trying to support the weight of that monstrosity on her head!

You could be a gentleman and eat half of it to lighten the weight!

 

[DopeyBadger]

Can you check them at bag check?

I guess it would be possible. But that's 45-60 pounds (15 people) of doughnuts to check and something tells me that might look a little suspicious (let alone how crazy heavy that would be). My current plan was to hit up one of the many local Chicago places (Doughnut Vault, Do-Rite, or Stan's) ((OR ALL OF THEM )) to find something lighter. We'll see what I can do when the time comes.

LOL!

I think a post-race donut crawl sounds like an excellent idea.

Now that's something I could sink my teeth into! They've got one of those as well (not that I've been looking......).

ATTQOTD: There's nothing like post race pancakes- PR or not!

I have a confession..... I hate pancakes.

Real talk.

They need like three cups of chocolate chips, hot fudge, whipped cream, you name it before they are even close to being palatable.

All in favor of kicking @LSUlakes and @Keels off of The Running Thread say "aye".

(For the record, waffles are far superior to pancakes. But pancakes are good too.)

But what are your thoughts on beignets?

Pretty sure if I lived in LA I would sign up for runs just for another reason to pig out on them.

Can I add a follow on question for today? If you go to a restaurant, where do you celebrate post rD races?

Depends on where we are staying but we’ve done the following and would return:
Le Cellier
Sanaa
Grand Floridian Cafe

Will do at Wine and Dine 2018:
California Grill Brunch

I’ll have to go with “nay”.

Neither have banned me for my intense dislike of beer, so I guess this is where I return the favor.

Pancakes give me the crepes, I mean creeps. Take that auto-correct!

 

[jennamfeo]

I just need some reasoning here. Do you like cake? Do you cook with a pan? I have had my fair share of terrible pancakes but there are those ones that are just perfect fluffiness and deliciousness that make me forget all about terrible cooks and their lack of pancake skills.

(For the record, waffles are far superior to pancakes. But pancakes are good too.)

Waffles are only better than pancakes when they are from Belgium.

I'm not voting anyone off the island for having a different like of food than me. But I will eat their share of pancakes while mildly judging their taste buds. More pancakes for me!

 

[Keels]

In my defense - I hate almost all breakfast foods except breakfast tacos ...

 

[SarahDisney]

Oh man, I didn't want to make anyone cry!

I think we can all agree that you can stay ... as long as you make an effort to attempt to consider possibly attempting to like pancakes. Or waffles.

Wow, who knew that pancakes were so controversial? It's not like we're trying to debate the best cereal or anything like that... (for the record, the best cereal is Fruity Pebbles)

I feel like you're also not at all a morning person, so we can let your dislike of breakfast foods slide because they're kind of morning things...

These two things are definitely linked.
