Who doesn't love Pancake Day? A glorious 24 hours when it's acceptable to eat delicious crepe after delicious crepe, with nobody allowed to judge the high pile of sugary toppings.
So when my editor asked me to spend the morning taking on a pancake eating challenge, I thought I'd lucked out. The Breakfast Club is challenging people to eat 12 pancakes in 12 minutes - easy.
I naively thought the mammoth pancake sprint wouldn't be so bad - surely a pancake wouldn't be that hard? Never have I ever been so swiftly humbled, my determination to be crowned champion crumbled away mouthful by mouthful.
