Lace up for a delightfully sweet challenge at the DoNot Stop Half Marathon (5k/10k) - Milwaukee, set for Saturday, April 4, 2026, in the vibrant city of Milwaukee, WI. This annual event, renowned for its unique donut theme, offers a perfect blend of fitness and fun for runners and walkers of all ages and abilities. Participants can choose their distance from a 1 Mile run, a 5K (3.1 miles), a 10K (6.2 miles), or take on the Half Marathon (13.1 miles), with an exciting Kids Dash also available for the younger enthusiasts.
Runners will enjoy a fast and flat course, often featuring scenic, tree-covered paths on crushed limestone trails, making it ideal for both competitive runners aiming for a personal best and those simply looking for a fun outing with family and friends. Aid stations are readily available along the route to keep participants fueled and hydrated. The distinctive charm of this race lies in its "donut" twist, including a delicious donut awaiting every finisher at the finish line. For the truly dedicated donut lover, the Half Marathon often features a special "Baker's Dozen Challenge," offering a donut at every mile.
Race day conditions typically bring pleasant spring weather to Milwaukee, with historical highs around 51°F and lows around 35°F, and a relatively low 14% chance of precipitation, creating comfortable running temperatures. Beyond the course, the DoNot Stop Half Marathon promises an engaging atmosphere with premium swag, including a designer shirt and a custom finisher medal (a super sweet 6-inch medal for Half Marathoners and a 4-inch medal for 5K/10K participants), along with chip-timing for live results and free photos to capture your memorable experience. Whether you're chasing a PR or simply enjoying the journey, this family-friendly event, organized by Bodies Race Company, fosters an encouraging and inclusive community, ensuring a rewarding experience for all.
