Then, all the people who completed it will be put in for a drawing for a 1 year membership at a crappy health club.
Doing the math, that's about $200 of ice cream and a minimum $500 of direct vehicle expenses if you schedule your route efficiently. All for the very real possibility of getting much fatter, and the slight chance of winning a $240 health club membership. On weekends, during peak foliage season, sharing the road with leaf peepers! This is pretty much my definition of hell.
I told her she could count on me for a single road trip with a single stop for ice cream.
