Street Dog Dash 5K - GA

Street Dog Dash 5K - GA is an annual charity 5K held at Etowah River Park in North Canton, Georgia, on April 24, 2027, starting at 9:00 AM. The 3.1-mile course is open to families and to their dogs, and proceeds go to local rescue partners as well as to efforts against the dog meat trade in Asia.

Running with a dog changes the calculation: the pace becomes whatever your companion can hold comfortably, and a short leash through the first crowded stretch is worth more than a fast opening quarter mile. Bring water for both of you. If you are running without a dog and want a time, position yourself near the front and be ready for a mixed field behind you. Either way, 3.1 miles on park ground needs little more than a few weeks of regular running to feel easy.
