About the race
The Best Races in Tampa hosts two themed events on the Upper Tampa Bay Trail: Run for Donuts and Cheers to Oktoberfest Run. Both offer 5K, 10K, and half-marathon (13.1) distances and welcome runners and walkers of all paces and ages (with guardian for under 18). The races emphasize a relaxed, community vibe with unique perks—donuts at the finish for the Donuts event and Bavarian-themed atmosphere for Oktoberfest.
Notable features include timing that is optional (no chips), swag shipped to registrants (including a shirt and finisher items), online results, a digital training pack, and a virtual run option. Wave caps create a smaller, private-group feel and registration can sell out quickly. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
