WGPAL Donut Dash 5K

🏃‍♂️ Race Overview

This year's Donut Dash 5K will take place in beautiful and historic Downtown Winter Garden. Run or walk through the timeless neighborhoods and down by Lake Apopka!

🍩 Donut Fun

OK, so where else can you not feel guilty about eating as many donuts as you want!?!!

Join us for this great event and support the Winter Garden Police Athletic League. The Police Athletic League provides:

• Summer Camp: A free 8 week summer camp for 140 underprivileged and at-risk kids.
• Holiday Gifts: Gifts and meal vouchers for approximately 400 local in-need children during the holiday season.

🏅 How It Works

EAT DONUTS, RUN, EAT DONUTS, HAVE FUN!!!

Here is how it works...You can run this just like a regular 5K or you can... EAT DONUTS!!!

• Donut Zones: Every donut eaten in one of the three “donut zones” will take 30 seconds off of your final run time.
• Timing: Eat 4 donuts and a total of 2 minutes will be taken off your final run time.
• Bonus: Anyone who eats 12 or more donuts will receive an additional bonus of 1 minute per donut (over 12) taken off their final run time.
• Locations: “Donut zones” will be located at the 1 mile mark, 2 mile mark, and 3 mile mark of the course.

👶 Kid's Fun Run

Each adult entry comes with 1 free child’s entry into the kid’s fun-run. If you have more than 1 child they can take part also at no additional cost, after all it is just plain fun.
