Stan’s Donut Run

The Stan’s Donut Run, also known as the Stan’s Donut Race, is a playful summer road race held in Chicago, Illinois, United States, starting and finishing at Soldier Field. The event is produced by Adrenaline Special Events with Stan’s Donuts & Coffee as the featured brand partner. The 2026 race celebrates “10 Sweet Years” and includes a 10K, 5K, Kids Dash, and virtual race options.

The race is built around a simple but highly effective concept: run, earn a donut-shaped medal, and celebrate with Stan’s Donuts and coffee at the finish. The course starts and finishes near Soldier Field’s Stadium Green, giving runners a classic Chicago race setting with access to the lakefront, Museum Campus area, skyline views, and a festive post-race atmosphere. The race includes donut stations on course, finisher medals, race shirts, coffee, and a family-friendly Kids Dash.
