About the event

The Baby-Faced Baker's 5K is more than just a race; it’s an invitation to indulge your sweet tooth and explore local craftsmanship. On December 6, 2026, runners will take part in a scenic 5-kilometer course that winds through the heart of downtown, featuring flat terrain perfect for all skill levels.
But the real treat awaits at the finish line: an array of freshly baked cinnamon buns from the Baby-Faced Baker himself. The aroma alone is enough to draw crowds, and with each bite, you’ll find yourself transported back to childhood memories of warmth and comfort. Complementing this sweet indulgence is a bustling Makers Market where local artisans showcase their unique creations—everything from handcrafted jewelry to homemade candles.
Whether you’re there for the race or simply to enjoy the festivities, December 6 promises an unforgettable day filled with flavors and creativity. So lace up your running shoes and prepare to savor every moment of this delightful event.
The route is designed not only to be runnable but also scenic, weaving through charming neighborhoods where runners can admire beautifully decorated homes and storefronts adorned for the holiday season. As you cross the finish line, don’t miss out on sampling a variety of cinnamon buns that range from classic recipes to innovative twists like caramel drizzle or fruit toppings.
Beyond the race itself, the Makers Market offers an opportunity to discover unique gifts and souvenirs while supporting local businesses. Whether you’re looking for personalized jewelry pieces, hand-painted pottery, or artisanal soaps, there’s something special waiting at every booth. The market also features live music performances that add a festive atmosphere to the day.
So mark your calendars for December 6, 2026, and join us in celebrating all things sweet and handmade with the Baby-Faced Baker's 5K.
