Yes/No: The Buttered Corn Day Challenge!

Looking for a new road race to run? Sick of fighting the masses in metropolitan mega-races? Have a hankering for free buttered sweet corn?

Have we got the race for you!

TCRC

The Buttered Corn Day Run and Fitness Walk will occur in Sleepy Eye, Minnesota on Saturday morning. There will 5K, 10K and 20K races starting at 7:00 A.M. The race is one of a summer full of little events that accompany small-town festivals.

So, we ask ...

Y/N: Will five or more runners break 20:00 in the Buttered Corn Day 5K?

In 2009, 427 runners, walkers or bikers turned out for the Buttered Corn Day events. The 20k offers a $100 prize for the male and female winners while the 5k/10k hands out plaques for age-group winners.

To play our game, simply type "yes" or "no" into the subject line of an e-mail and send it to us at DtBFantasy [AT] gmail [DOT] com before 9:00 A.M. CST, Saturday, August 21th. Please put your answer in the subject line of the e-mail and make sure your full name appears somewhere in the e-mail. We will continue to offer a bonus for participants making their debut in Yes/No - a correct answer will be worth two points for any first-time players.

My answer: No

The fantasy contest question from last week was: Will Barbora Špotáková win the javelin at the Aviva London Grand Prix on Friday? The answer was yes. The best female javelin thrower in the world proved it by winning the meet with only one throw. Lori Anne Peterson remains in first place with 21 points, followed by Gregg Robertson and Toby Hatlevig with 20.
