Join the Dashing for Donuts 5K Fun Run and 1-mile Kids Race in Placerville, CA. This fourth annual event offers a welcoming out-and-back course on the El Dorado Trail. Every participant earns a donut and a medal at the finish line. Beyond the fun, this race is deeply cause-driven, with all proceeds supporting the National Ovarian Cancer Coalition (NOCC) - Team Teal, championed by a 16-year ovarian cancer survivor. It's a chance to run, enjoy a sweet treat, and contribute to a vital cause.

It will be held on the El Dorado Trail from the new bridge at Missouri Flat Road. It is an out and back race. Once you're finished, you get a donut and a medal. The 5K race will happen first and then we will have the kids 1 mile race.
All proceeds from the race will go to the National Ovarian Cancer Coalition, (NOCC) -Team Teal. I am a 16 year survivor of ovarian cancer and a team member of NOCC - Team Teal. NOCC helps all women diagnosed with ovarian cancer and educates along with supporting them.
