The 45th edition of Spiken took place today and both my husband, brother-in-law and niece participated (she killed my old personal best btw – by several minutes.. ).
It is a fun tradition that my parents have kept alive all these years. My mom bakes a ton of cinnamon buns and the last couple of years they have also served hotdogs to everyone who is there. The number of participants were a lot larger in the good old days but there is still enough people interested in coming to make it an event worth having.
This year was pretty special because the numbers that the participants wear were especially designed for the event this year! With a big nail on and everything! Cool!
