Eat Buffett’s Candy & Ice Cream? Run it Off During Shareholder’s Weekend

Berkshire Hathaway shareholders will now be able to work off all the See's Candy and Dairy Queen treats they enjoy at the company's annual meeting with a 5k run.

Berkshire's Brooks Running subsidiary announced plans for the fun run on Tuesday. The race will be held in Omaha on May 5 - one day after the annual meeting that routinely attracts more than 30,000 people.

Berkshire CEO Warren Buffett says he is challenging the managers of all of the conglomerate's 80-odd businesses to participate. The 82-year-old Buffett will fire the starting gun and crown the winners.

Brooks will again sell a commemorative Berkshire Hathaway running shoe at the annual meeting that features a cartoon drawing of Buffett on the insoles.
