About this event
The Dawg Dash is a beloved fall tradition that sends runners and walkers through the University of Washington campus and surrounding neighborhoods on a 5K and 10K course. Purple-clad students, alumni, families and dogs turn out for a festive morning that doubles as a fundraiser supporting UW scholarships and student programs. Both distances are open to all abilities, and the atmosphere is more community celebration than competition. Wear your Husky gear, bring the kids, and enjoy the post-race festivities. Registration is required with an entry fee; check the event page for the exact start time and packet pickup.
