Donut Give Up 5k & 10k
This event takes place at Old Mill Park in Fredericksburg and follows a paved route alongside the Rappahannock River. The course is stroller and kid friendly; walkers and strollers are explicitly welcome. A virtual race option is available for participants who cannot attend in person.
Distances:
- 5 km
- 10 km
Course details and aid: the 5 km is an out-and-back route and the 10 km repeats that 5 km course twice. The paved path has a few small hills. There are two water stations on the 5 km at about mile markers 1.1 and 2, and five water stations on the 10 km at about mile markers 1.1, 2, 3.1, 4.2 and 5.1. Gatorade is available at some water stations. Restrooms are located near the parking lot.
Participant services and awards: packet pickup is available at the event and race day registration is offered, though T-shirt sizes cannot be guaranteed for same-day registrants. Runners receive two donut holes, a finisher’s medal, a technical (Dri-FIT) event shirt, and chip timing. Live results are posted on Athlinks with a QR code at the event; final results with series points are posted the Monday after the race. Awards include top three men and women overall and age-group awards; overall top three are not eligible for age-group prizes.
Series, policies and volunteers: points from this race count toward the Year-Long 5k, 10k and Back of the Pack series and toward the Winter Series. The Back of the Pack series groups runners of similar, slower paces for series points. Banditing is prohibited and may result in removal or disqualification. The organizer operates as an all-weather event but may delay or cancel for safety; volunteers should plan to arrive about 60 minutes before the first race for assignments.
