Dogs Welcome: Your dog is required to be leashed. Please make sure you use your best leash manners. A retractable leash can be dangerous at an event like this. It offers too many opportunities to trip up other runners or walkers and lets your dog roam too far from you, which makes it harder for you to supervise his behavior. Instead, opt for a short leash that keeps your dog walking by your side, or a harness, which offers both comfort and control. Be a good pet parent. Dog jogs tend to be family events, which means lots of kids — many of whom may want to pet (or hug or kiss or snuggle) your dog. And while your dog has perfect manners (of course), not everyone else’s dog — or child — will. Be aware of your surroundings and keep an eye on your dog at all times.;
Strollers Welcome Strollers are welcomed on the coarse but please remain behind all timed runners near the back of the start line.
Course Map: Coming Soon!
