About the race

The Gastonia Police Donut Dash 5K and Fun Run is held at Rankin Lake Park in Gastonia, North Carolina. This unique event offers participants a choice between a 5K run with or without donuts and a fun run with or without mini donuts. Notably, runners in the 5K with Donuts must eat six glazed donuts halfway through the race, adding a fun and challenging twist.

The event fosters community engagement by bringing together residents and police officers, with proceeds supporting local officer-led initiatives. Awards are given for overall winners and age categories, and race shirts are guaranteed for early registrants. Discounts are available for children 12 and under.
