About the Event

Athletes of all skill levels are invited to run your choice of our 5K, 10K, Half Marathon or 1-Mile course.  All races will start at BMX parking, a short trail walk from the Animal Shelter @ Tom Brown Park. Races will finish at the Shelter's back parking lot. None of the courses will be run on Easterwood.  Easterwood will remain open before and during the races.

WE REQUEST PARTICIPANTS LEAVE THEIR PETS AT HOME FOR SAFETY REASONS AND TO HIGHLIGHT OUR SHELTER’S FURRY FRIENDS

Race proceeds benefit the Animal Shelter Foundation (ASF), a non-profit organization created by volunteers to support the animals in the care of Tallahassee Animal Services, more commonly known as the Animal Shelter at Tom Brown Park. We exist, through the help of community events and donations, to make a positive difference in the lives of homeless animals. For more information visit https://animalshelterfoundation.org/

Have a great race!
