Paczki Run 2026

Get ready to sprint into the revelry of Fat Tuesday with the heart-pumping Paczki Run, a 5K that combines fitness, fun, and indulgence in the vibrant city of Hamtramck! Lace up your running shoes and earn your paczki on February 10, as the route sends you through "the world in 2 square miles." Cross the finish line and celebrate your victory with a delicious paczek and a refreshing beer or, for those 21 and over, a shot of Detroit Distillery’s Paczki Vodka, by the lively beats at the polka party! Discounted treats await you at participating businesses, so wear your bib with pride and immerse yourself in local culture. Just remember, T-shirts are not guaranteed for late registrants after 2/1/24, and come rain or shine, snow or sizzle, the race must go on – so dress accordingly and let's make some unforgettable memories!
