Duck Donuthon

The Duck Donuthon is a fun run mixed with an eating competition designed for the whole family to enjoy! The course will be in McCowin Park, Ammon, Idaho, with some grass and a loop around the bike path. We'll have a nice big "pig pen" area with music and fun where you get locked up until you eat your donut. (You can check out the map on our website. This is a great activity for kids, runners, families, and die-hard crazies! Ollie, Duck Donuts mascot will be on hand to add entertainment and cheer you on. 

You'll start on the gun, run your mile, enter our "Pig Pen" where you will grab 1 donut and eat it, once your mouth is empty you will head to the Start/Finish line. You'll repeat until you've completed the distance/# of donuts.

DISTANCES

LIL DUCKY-1 Mile: Run 1 mile then eat 1 donut. You'll get 1 donut and a finisher award. The Lil Ducky race will have open start times every 15 minutes from 8:00am to 10:45am. (So basically you can choose whether to run at 8:15, 9:15, 10:15 or whichever one fits your family better. If you've got someone running and you want to cheer them on, come for an earlier start time. If your kids want to sleep in you can come for one of the later times, most of the other runners should be done before 10:00am, so if you don't like crowds come after that, if you do like crowds come right at 8:15). 
 
HUNGRY DUCKY-5k: Run a total of 3 miles and eat 3 donuts. You'll get 3 donuts and a Finisher Award. We will have chip timing and awards for the fastest male and female participants). Chip timing provided by Vector Timing! All 5k runners will start at 9:00am and have until 11:00am to finish (so basically you can walk and enjoy the park and your donuts if you want), we'll also have prizes for the top male and female finishers. (so you can run hard and not enjoy your donuts if you want as well).

We love having volunteers help us put this on. All volunteers will get a free T-Shirt and a Free Race Entry (say you have a spouse that wants to run, but you don't, you can volunteer, get them in for free, and then be there to cheer them on).
