UC Running Club Donut Dash - May 15
The Donut Dash is a 1 mile race on the University of Cincinnati Campus. It will start and finish on McMicken Commons. Five minutes before the race, each runner will get the chance to eat as many donuts as they can. Each donut you consume will subtract 5 seconds off of your mile time. (If you can eat 12 donuts that’s a WHOLE minute…just something to think about.) You can run the Donut Dash as an individual in an attempt to be crowned the Donut Eating Champion, or you can make a team of up to 8 people and compete against the other teams. There will be special prizes awarded to both!
This year’s race will be Sunday, May 15 at 11am. The route begins and ends at McMicken Commons on the University of Cincinnati's main campus.
For more information or to register, visit the UC Running Club Page.
