The tradition of the Duluth Fall Festival 5K continues as the Duluth Donut Dash. Every participant will receive a donut and coffee provided by Dunkin Donuts.
This race attracts both the serious competitive racer and the occasional runner/walker, and provides an opportunity for participants of all ages to help children experiencing foster care in our community while participating in a fun event!

The race starts and finishes in downtown Duluth near Hill Street during the Duluth Fall Festival. Runners can park behind Coleman Middle School or at Duluth High School and walk to the Park or the shuttle will pick up at Chattahoochee Elementary Schook and will drop at Coleman Middle School.
