What exactly IS a donut hole mile?

If you're familiar with a traditional Beer Mile, the donut hole mile is a fun twist for all ages! Run in the same way as a Beer Mile but you eat progressively more donut holes before on each leg... 1 donut hole before the 1st quarter mile, 2 before the 2nd, 3 before you run your 3rd quarter mile and, of course, 4 right before you head out for the last leg of the mile for a grand total of 10 donut holes!  Each runner will consume 5 glazed and 5 chocolate donut holes - you can choose what order you eat each type!

CTH Donut Hole Mile Official Rules

1. Each competitor eats a total of 10 donut holes (5 glazed and 5 chocolate) and runs four quarter mile out and back loops from the Tap House (start with eating 1 donut hole, then run an eastbound lap, then eat 2 donut holes, then westbound lap, then eat 3 donut holes, then eastbound lap, finally eat 4 donut holes, then westbound lap - finish).  Participants can choose the order/flavor of donut holes they eat before each lap. 
   
   
2. The race begins with competitors at their designated station within the transition zone eating their donut hole(s) before setting off to run a lap.  To prove the donut hole(s) are finished, competitors must open their mouth wide to the face official and get their ok to proceed.
   
   
3. No liquid assistance allowed while eating donut holes.
    
4. Competitors who vomit before they finish the race must complete one penalty lap at the end of the race (immediately after the completion of their 4th lap). Vomiting more than once during the race still only requires one penalty lap at the end.
