Pup Strut 5K Walk/Run

Omega Tau Sigma presents the second annual Pup Strut 5K Walk/Run at Midwestern University in Glendale. We welcome runners and walkers of all ages to race alongside their canine companions on this 3.2 mile course. The course is two loops around Midwestern's campus and avoids Glendale roads to keep all two and four legged racers safe!

Race entry price goes up each month and all entries prior to January 8, 2018 will include a T-Shirt, race bib, water and snack for human participants and a Pup Strut dog tag and poop bags for canine racers. We welcome racers to register the morning of the event, however extra shirts and dog tags will be on a first come first serve basis. All canine racers must be up to date on vaccines and of good temperament. Each human racer may race with up to but no more than two dogs.

This a family friendly event with safe spaces for running strollers - the race is free for children up to 5 years of age and there is a small entry fee for children 5-12years which includes a T-Shirt and no race bib. Children 12 years and over register as adults.

Additional Pup Strut Swag will be for sale the day of the event including bandanas for your canine racers, drawstring backpacks and more! There will be raffles for all participants, and awesome prizes for the top male, female and canine racers.

Packet pickup will be from 630-730AM the day of the event, with the race starting promptly at 8AM. There will be signs directing you to the Ramadas on campus where an inflatable arch will mark the start and finish lines.

Feel free to stick around after the race to check out adoptable dogs from local shelters, and speak with representatives from Hill's Science Diet Specialists as well as Nationwide Pet Insurance! Proceeds from the event will go towards local rescue groups and scholarships for Omega Tau Sigma members.
