Back by popular demand for the 13th year, it won't be long before it's time to greet the New Year again with friends and a big mug of hot chocolate! As always everyone who finishes the race gets a great mug and medal, all the hot chocolate they can drink, and all dog entries go to support the SPCA of Wake County. Mutts & Marshmallows is also the first race of Fit & Able's annual Free-for-All Race Series.
Fit & Able loves family fitness and whose four-legged furry friend isn't part of the family? Dog owners are welcome to run with their pups in the Doggie Dash 5K and Doggie Dash 8K! For only $10 per pup it will be happy trails for both runners and their dogs. AND, the full $10 dog fee goes to support the Wake County SPCA!
All races will have a mass start at 9:00 AM for the Doggie Dash 5K / Doggie Dash 8K, 9:45 AM for the Fun Mile, and 10:00 AM for the regular 5K / 8K and the course closes for all races at 11:30 AM (In-person Race Day Schedule). Please consider your race pace when deciding which event to run. * The Doggie Dash 5K / Doggie Dash 8K races and regular 5K / 8K races will run separately but have combined results and awards. ** For any participants who feel they may need some extra time, please contact us at info@fitandable.net.
NEW RRCA INSURANCE GUIDELINES: Only one dog per registered runner and dogs must remain on leashes at all times. You MUST register your dog in order for them to run with you. Dogs are ONLY allowed in the Doggie Dash 5K and Doggie Dash 8K. Kids 12 & Younger are NOT allowed in the Doggie Dash 5K or Doggie Dash 8K.
*** The Doggie Dash Dog Registration is an add-on you can select WHILE registering for the in-person Doggie Dash 5K or Doggie Dash 8K or any virtual race. ***

The name of the city is jokingly referred to as standing for Containment/Concentration Area for Relocated Yankees.
