Nothing ordinary about this morning’s donut run! We admit it was hard getting up in the dark again (thanks, DST), but we perked up once the sun rose with cotton candy skies as the backdrop. Remember: special Oakland Marathon shakeout run next Friday 3/20! Same time, same place, with donuts and coffee waiting for you after your run!

Donut runners got them moves! Today cofounder shared the origin story of the Friday donut run, how the first donut was a chance for runners to come together and enjoy each other’s company. It was a good reminder to connect with one another and build community, even as we seek to log our miles! It’s wonderful also to have a group of donut walkers join us. We welcome movers and shakers of any pace!
