Always Ready K9 Race
This 3K run/walk option is open to four-legged friends accompanied by 2 legged guides. Dogs must be leashed on no longer than a 6ft lead and able to maintain a calm disposition for the entirety of the event. The K9 race will start 5 minutes after the 5K. This race is brought to you by our partners at Blue Line K9. Each finisher will receive a Blue Line K9 Champion Medal and an Always Ready K9 Bandana.
Course:
The 5K will start and finish at Harborview Park and will bring runners by Fishermans Memorial as they enter Coast Guard Training Center Cape May, the home of the Coast Guard enlisted corps and the Coast Guard's only enlisted accession point and recruit training center. A nearly 1.5 mile tour of the base will promise plenty of monumental views running along the harbor and a glimpse of the cutters at port. Course details are subject to change.
The K9 race will start 5 minutes after the 5K and follow the same route until runners reach the entrance to the base. K9 runners will not enter US Training Center Cape May, but will instead turnaround near the gate and return back to Harborview Park.
