Organiser's description

Welcome to the ELEVENTH ANNUAL RUNNING OF THE DONUTS!

The 2023 Running of the donuts will come back with the traditional Donut Run and Challenge.



SPECIAL 11TH ANNIVERSARY Running of the Donuts Medals to the first 150 runners in the 5K. Donut Relay Runners will receive a medal if they are available. T-shirts guaranteed to those who register on or before 5/25/2023.

You can run just the Open 5K, do THE CHALLENGE by running the open 5K and the Donut Run or you can run just the Donut Run by yourself or as a relay team.



5K Early Registration is $30 until midnight MAY 13, 2022. Late registration is $35 from May 14, 2021 until 3 pm on Friday June 3, 2022



The Challenge is running the open 5K and coming back in the Donut Run. Early reg is $35 and Late reg is $40. The race start time for the Donut Run is 9am.



The Donuts Relay is two runners. The first runner goes 1.5 miles then BOTH runners eat 6 donuts at the Donut STOP. The second runner then runs the second 1.5 miles and finishes the 5K. Earl reg is $40 and late reg is $45. Both runners receive a shirt, hence a slightly higher registration fee.

DUE TO POPULAR DEMAND! We have expanded age groups in the senior years. Awards are now 65-69, 70-74, 75 and over. Thank you for your suggestions.
