Event summary

Get ready to unleash the fun at the [Un]leash the Fun 5k Run and 2k Walk on Saturday, May 24th, 2025, in the beautiful Duncansville, Blair! This exciting event is not just a race; it's a celebration of community and a cause close to many hearts. Join fellow runners and walkers as you make your way through the scenic Duncansville Memorial Park and beyond, all while supporting the creation of a much-needed dog park where your furry friends can romp and play in a leash-free environment.

The event aims to raise awareness about canine chronic kidney disease, a condition that affects many beloved pets.

All proceeds will go directly to the establishment of the dog park and educational signage about canine health. So whether you’re sprinting for the finish line or enjoying a leisurely stroll, your involvement makes a difference. Don’t miss out on this fantastic opportunity to have fun, support a great cause, and help our four-legged friends live their best lives!

Organiser's Description

Let's get this park party started! The [Un]leash the Fun 5k run and 2k walk is happening for two reasons. First, we need a dog park, and Duncansville has the spot. This park will be a wooded, leash-free area where you and your pup can make friends and run free. No membership fees required! The second reason is to raise awareness about canine chronic kidney disease. Beau (pup in the picture) was only 5 years old when he lost his life to kidney disease which broke the hearts of all who knew him. Chronic kidney disease is one of the leading causes of death in dogs. While there is no cure, early detection is paramount in treating the disease and lengthening your dogs lifespan. Through this race, I hope to provide a safe, fun, free place for local dogs to run and play and to make owners aware of the symptoms of CKD, how to test for it, and how to advocate for their dogs. All proceeds from the race go directly to the dog park and signage about Beau's story. The race will start at Duncansville Memorial Park and continue through the borough. Sponsored in part by Curry Rail Services.
