Le Doughnut Dash, c'est une course sur route annuelle de 5 km qui se passe au Macassa Bay Yacht Club, sur Harbour Front Drive, à Hamilton, Ontario. Une course enfants démarre juste avant l'épreuve principale. Cette course de fin de saison a lieu avant Noël, le 5 km part à 10h00 (heure de l'Est), juste après la course enfants qui démarre à 9h55. En général, il y a plus de 310 coureurs au départ, ce qui lui donne plus l'ambiance d'une course conviviale que d'une petite "fun run". Le chronométrage est par puce, et tous les participants, des deux courses, reçoivent une médaille de finisher. Le parcours du 5 km fait une boucle dans Bayfront Park avant de faire un aller-retour d'environ un mile sur le "waterfront trail", avec un demi-tour à la première île. C'est un parcours plat, mesuré avec précision, même si sa certification a expiré. Les spectateurs peuvent voir les coureurs au départ, vers les 1,300 mètres, et encore à l'arrivée. Grandad's Doughnuts sponsorise l'événement en fournissant des doughnuts pour tous les participants et en offrant de petits échantillons de différentes saveurs ; attention, ces échantillons ne sont pas sans noix. Des prix sont remis aux trois premiers au scratch, hommes et femmes, ainsi qu'aux trois premiers de chaque catégorie d'âge par tranche de cinq ans, des 19 ans et moins aux 70 ans et plus. La course propose aussi des tirages au sort et soutient la jeunesse locale.
