Bryan Loy, placing 16th among the men, and Laura Eynon, 10th among the women, were Greensboro's top finishers in the Krispy Kreme Challenge in Raleigh on Saturday.
In the challenger division, the race consisted of a two-mile run to the doughnut stop, consumption of 12 doughnuts and a two-mile run back -- all the while keeping the doughnuts down.
Loy finished the race in 35 minutes and 3 seconds. Chapel Hill's Reese Wells won in 30:20.
Eynon, the 2008 women's winner, completed the event in 44 minutes and 11 seconds. Yvonne Ou of Durham was the first female finisher in 35:20.
Race officials scored 1,290 men's finishers and 154 women. The event was a fundraiser for the N.C. Children's Hospital.
