Description
Join thousands of animal lovers for the 23rd Annual Dog Jog, 5K and Block Party, presented by Holiday Barn Pet Resorts and benefiting the Richmond SPCA! Participate in person or select the "run anywhere" option.
On Saturday, March 22, expect a day packed with fun activities for the whole family. The day begins with a chip-timed 5K (3.1 mile) for people only and then a leisurely 1-mile Dog Jog. The event is rain or shine, however our Block Party will have a rain date of Sunday, March 23. All net proceeds aid in our efforts to rescue and rehabilitate homeless animals and to deliver crucial programs to pets and the people who love them.
Your Dog Jog, 5K or Run Anywhere registration includes:
- An event T-shirt (for the first 1,000 registrants)
- An event medal (for the first 1,000 registered participants)
- A bag full of exciting giveaways from our generous sponsors (for the first 1,000 registrants)
- A numbered race bib (for the 5K)
- GPS tracking, progress alerts and official race timing through the RaceJoy app as you hit milestones along your route (if you choose our Run Anywhere option)
