Stan’s Donut 5k Chicago

August 10, 2019

Stan’s Donut 5k 2019

Will run for donuts! The annual Stan’s Donut 5k was this weekend and racers came with an appetite. Held at popular 5k venue Solider Field by Adrenaline Special Events, participants took in Chicago’s beautiful skyline while feasting on Stan’s glazed and cinnamon donuts upon each mile marker. Talk about a great way to wake up in the morning!

My Walking Buddy

It’s been awhile since I’ve done a running/walking event. My last one I believe was the RunDisney Enchanted Princess 10k! I chose to do this 5k event with my favorite person – my momma 🙂 We decided to do the walk portion due to our hip and foot injuries, but it was still such a great time! We walked, talked and ate all the mini donuts we could. The course had us go along the outside of Solider Field, around McCormick Place, and back.

Pre-Race Gear

Packet pick-up for Stan’s Donut 5k was at Ultimate Ninja in Naperville and Chicago. For those that registered early, packet shipping was also available. We would have done this option but were a little late to the game. The 2019 packet included this year’s dri-fit race shirt (unisex), a race bib, and a few coupons from local businesses.

Finisher’s Swag

A donut 5k wouldn’t be complete without a donut-shaped finisher medal! This year’s bling was the cutest green and pink sprinkled donut. It felt good to get some swag after walking those miles – and sweating under the hot August sun! Racers could also grab a full-sized glazed donut and High Brew iced coffee in the finishers’ area.
