Organiser's Description
The 1st Annual Sunshine Supplies for Teachers 5K & Donut Dash Fun Run for Education is a race celebrating teachers, schools, and their students. ย This sugar-fueled 5K starts and finishes at the Forsyth Park main pavilion. ย The race starts at 7:30 am and runs a course in and around the park. ย We will offer a few types of runs: ย A traditional 5K run, a 1 mile run/walk, a 1 mile Donut Fun Run , and a kid run (ages 10 and under). ย All proceeds will go to Sunshine Supplies for Teachers, a non-profit organization that assists teachers and school districts in receiving supplies for classrooms and beyond in Macon & Piatt Counties. ย During the fun run, participants must eat a DONUTย and then complete the remainder of the race. ย The Donut Challenge is a specialty race and has a limited number of spots. To add some extra โsweetness,โ we will also have special contests for best donut-themed adult individual costume, best dressed group, and best dressed child (under 10 years of age). ย We will also have various raffles going on at the end of the race. ย ย
