Donut 8k & Munchkin 1 Miler

The Donut 8k & Munchkin 1 Miler is a winter running event that benefits Ira B. Jones Elementary School in Asheville, North Carolina. It takes place on a Saturday in late February.

The event offers three separate race options. The Donut 8k is a chip-timed run/walk that includes a t-shirt with registration. The Munchkin 1 Miler is a chip-timed one-mile run or walk, which also includes a t-shirt. The Sprinkle Dash is an untimed fun run for participants 12 years old and under, and registration does not include a shirt.

Courses travel through the North Asheville neighborhood and are subject to change. Maps for the 8k and 1-mile routes are available online via RideWithGPS. The event has a no-refund policy, but registrations can be transferred to another runner, a different distance, or to a virtual option up to five days before the event. In case of inclement weather, the event may be postponed to a later date in April. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
