2022 Donut Dash AKA Paczki Run/Walk on Fat Tuesday

Please join us Tuesday, March 1 at the WestSide Stride's Donut Dash Charity 5K. All fitness levels are invited to the free community based event.  

Patrons will receive an entry into a raffle for coming to the event. For every paczki consumed another entry will be given. However, there is no pressure to eat paczkis. This is not a timed race - it is a fun run/walk.

Huge thanks to Bridge Street Market for donating the paczki.

Patrons are asked to fill out the registration online at https://www.swiftprinting.com/westside-signup

We are asking participants to consider making a donation for the Grand Rapids Police Foundation. Link for making a donation here.

There is an option to purchase a fun Donut Dash shirt or make a donation on the site. All proceeds go towards the cause.

Please meet in the Red Lion Parking Lot (412 Bridge Street NW) at 6 p.m. The parking lot is open to the public 24/7 via text to pay at an hourly rate.

Charles & Kevin actually came up with the idea 4 years ago. Thanks guys!

After the “exercise” patrons are invited to go to Fratelli’s Kitchen & Bar for dinner and/or a beverage. (All food and drink is purchased by the patron)

This is all about having fun on Fat Tuesday in the neighborhood that we all love.

Safety is our number one priority. Please wear bright colors and reflective clothing/accessories. COVID-19 Precautions will be taken. Masks preferred at the start as well as social distancing.
