COUNTDOWN TO THE NEXT RACE DAY
We Raced
In 2020, we raced from the Florida Entertainment Stage, around the Expo Hall through Gate 1, passed by Kiddie Land, down the midway passing all the rides and thrills, around the Equestrian Center passing the Extreme Dogs and Bello Nock’s Daredevil Daze and finally we raced through Five Points passing all the amazing smells of fair foods and fun as we sparked a tradition at the first-ever Deep Fried Dash 5K and ended at the Midway SkyEye Wheel!
We Handed Out
No racer left empty-handed! Everyone went home with our one of a kind Deep Fried Dash finisher’s medal.
Super Dog
Super Dog was ready and waiting at the finish line with a deep-fried fair favorite! The official corn dog of the Deep Fried Dash 5K!
And Our Sponsor
The Florida Dairy Farmers helped us every step of the race!
