Chicken & Waffles Dash 5K
Get ready for the most delicious and ridiculous 5K you’ll ever run! Join us on June 13th, 2026 during the Chickamauga Chicken & Waffles Festival for a race that’s equal parts running, laughter, and breakfast-themed fun.
Runners are encouraged to dress the part and join our Chicken & Waffles Costume Challenge. Come dressed as your best chicken, waffle, syrup bottle, chef, or anything breakfast-inspired. The more creative (and slightly ridiculous), the better.
Costume awards include:
🏆 Best Chicken
🧇 Best Waffle
😂 Funniest Costume
👨👩👧 Best Group Costume
Every participant will receive a race t-shirt and earn a finisher medal at the finish line.
Awards will be given to overall male & female and the following age groups:
0–9, 10–14, 15–19, 20–29, 30–39, 40–49, 50–59, 60+
After the race, stick around and enjoy the festival with amazing food vendors and a makers market full of local goodies.
Whether you're racing for a PR or just running for the waffles…
