It’s a Bird, It’s a Plane, It’s a Donut !

April 14, 2016 By Dayton937 Leave a Comment

Look, over at Centerville Stadium, caped superheros of all sorts are descending on the track for a 5k / 10k Walk/Run this Saturday, April 16th!  They are able to leap a dozen pretzel donuts in a single bound.  They are the runners/walkers for this special event.

Dubbed the “Bill’s Donut Superhero Run,” this walk/run event is for kids and adults.   Most importantly it benefits a local charity, the Dayton, Ohio Affiliate Chapter of “A Special Wish Foundation, Inc.,” covering Montgomery, Darke, Mercer, Miami, Greene & Shelby Counties.

The event allows families to participate together, or just kids, or just adults.   Who is your favorite super hero?  Green Lantern?  The Flash?  Wonder Woman? Who will you dress up as?

Join the fun and come dressed as your favorite super hero.  Kids go crazy for this stuff, and what a fun way to promote healthy exercise in their lives.   You even get to have some world famous Bill’s Donuts after the race, as well as Mikesells chips, bananas, and grilled hot dogs.  What a fun Food Adventure!

Super heroes get hungry too, ya know.  Plenty of bottled water will be available for re-hydration of our super powers after the race.

What is your favorite donut?  Blueberry?  Long Johns?  Persian Nuts?  Maybe even stop by for more Bill’s Donuts on the way home, around the corner from the stadium.

This is one of the most fun and entertaining local races of the year.  Come out and walk, run, or just people watch.  Bring the kids and sign them up for the fun run, it is an absolute riot to see some of the youngsters in their “super hero” alter egos.  Kudos to Bill’s Donuts, the Elam family,  A Special Wish staff, and all the sponsors for helping out the charity  “A Special Wish Foundation, Inc.”

The Big Ragu, Hungry Jax and Chef House will be in attendance volunteering passing out donuts, and even participating in the walk/run.  Come join the Food Adventures Crew and hundreds of others.
