The race draws hundreds of runners, walkers, and canine friends to a celebratory, animal-friendly atmosphere in the park.

The course is set within Karst Farm Park (course map available). Special features include a Pet Costume Contest, a Fastest Peanut Butter Licker Contest, and a post-race raffle. Dogs must be leashed and up to date on rabies vaccination.
