Organiser's Description
*** RED COYOTE PUPPY LOVE RESCHEDULED DATE SUNDAY, FEB 23RD! ***
Red Coyote is kicking off 2025 with the Red Coyote Puppy Love 5K! Join the Pack for a 5K run or walk with and for your best four-legged friends.
The event will support the mission of 405 Animal Rescue [https://www.405animalrescue.org/] and you might even have the chance to meet and adopt a new running buddy!
This race is 100% dog friendly for all well-socialized pups on a leash. We do ask that any owners running with dogs be prepared with a "pick up" bag to attend to any unscheduled potty breaks (yours or theirs) on the course. ;-) Permit requires we leave it spotless so we need everyone to do their part!
You can run with a dog or without. The course loops in such a way as to have traffic moving in just one direction. We trust that everyone will be accommodating and have a good time. There will be regular awards for the top three men and women finishers and the winners of the USATF age divisions. We'll also have a prize for the first male and female finisher with a dog!
For additional fun, participate in our costume contest! We'll have a special prize for the doggo / owner with the most amazing get up.
