A local runner who badly wants chocolate pudding doesn’t know, or care, where the craving came from, Dumb Runner has learned—she just wants the pudding.

Clair Huxtable, 33, developed a desire for the creamy dessert suddenly during a 10-mile run this morning, beginning when the word pudding thrust itself into her consciousness, followed immediately by the word chocolate.

“Pudding,” Huxtable thought. “Chocolate.”

Then, a moment later: “Chocolate pudding.”

Huxtable had not spoken or even thought about chocolate pudding for months, according to a source, and hadn’t actually eaten any for at least that long. It remains unclear where the craving originated, or why it felt so intense and felt so urgent.

“Who knows how the brain works?” the source said. “Especially a runner’s brain?”

Reached for comment in the final mile of her run, Huxtable told Dumb Runner that she plans to go find some chocolate pudding.

“Damn, she said. “I want that pudding so bad.”
