3rd Annual DUCK DONUT HOLIDAY 5K AND 2K PUP STRUT
The 3rd Annual Duck Donut Holiday 5K and 2K Pup Strut is scheduled for November 29, 2026, in Parsippany, New Jersey, with the event centered near the Parsippany Hilton on Sylvan Way.
Event distances:
- 5K run on a flat course with finisher medal and fresh Duck Donut
- 2K Pup Strut sponsored by Tater Bear Treats with a treat at the finish
The 5K course is described as flat. Every 5K finisher receives a one-of-a-kind finisher medal and a fresh Duck Donut provided by Duck Donuts Route 10. The 2K Pup Strut is presented as a relaxed, tail-wagging stroll with a special treat waiting at the finish and is sponsored by Tater Bear Treats.
Logistics noted by the organizer: there is no on-course water stop and Culligan Water will be available at the finish; the event will proceed in rain, snow, or shine; and there are no timed awards. This year’s race benefits Toys for Tots Dover and participants are asked to bring an unwrapped toy; the organizer aims to fill four boxes.
Registration and pickup details from the organizer: T-shirts and finisher medals are guaranteed for registrations completed by November 9. Prices increase by $10 per race 21 days before race day. Bib and T-shirt pickup is scheduled at Duck Donuts on Route 10 in Whippany on November 26, and race-day pickup is available. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
