Enjoy a flat and fast out-and-back starting on the Katy Trail near Bike Stop Cafe. Both routes are a perfect out-and-back starting north on the soft path. The 5k turns around in Dusable Park. The 10k continues on the shady, non-technical trail that runs parallel to the Katy Trail. Beautiful river views! Post run fun at the Bike Stop Cafe including coffee and beer specials and social time on the patio!

Stand back at pre-event briefings if your dog is prone to barking. This is to ensure that participants can hear announcements clearly and don't get distracted.
When walking or running with a dog please position yourself at the start line according to predicted finish time.
Keep your dog on a lead, by your side, within arms reach, and under control throughout the event.
Do consider whether the weather/terrain are suitable for your dog.
Please clean up after your dog.
