FAQ

We will be adding to this section as we get closer to race day - check back often

Due to ongoing construction and for the safety of all, we made the very difficult decision to move this year's (2026) event to a new location.  While we hope to be back at Main Line in 2027, we are incredibly thankful to Henrico County and Dory Park for the use of their amazing park!

This is a rain-or-shine event

Can I bring my dog? Yes, dogs that are not dog reactive, and are fully vaccinated, and not in heat are welcome to participate in the event

Can I bring my cat? Sure, we love all animals.... but maybe make sure they like dogs :)

Are strollers allowed? Yep! Strollers and Wheelchairs are welcome

There is only one packet pick up this year and it will be the Tuesday before the race at Luck Road Run Shop from 11 am -4 pm

Race will start at 9 am sharp but come early

Vendor market will be open from 8am - 12 pm

The dog agility area and dog sensory areas will be open 8am - 12 pm 

This is a timed 5k, and finisher prizes will be awarded to the top 3 as well as the first male and female of each age group.  In addition, there will be a variety of door prizes given away throughout the morning.
