Dear K9 Advocate,
Join K9s United on Saturday, April 29th, at the World Golf Hall of Fame, for the K9s United 9K for K9s. This event will include the 1-mile fun run (untimed), the classic 5K, and our challenging 9K!
Sign up now before registration prices increase!
Both the 5K and 9K will be chip timed with awards for the top runners in each category. Each race is open to runners and walkers of all levels.
Can't make it out on race day? That's okay, we are offering a "NO EXCUSE" Virtual 5K and 9K race options so you can still be part of the fun, and earn a t-shirt and medal while supporting a great cause.
Fun for the Whole Family
In addition to the race, there will be amazing post-race activities for the whole family, including fun vendors, a K9 photo booth to get your picture taken with a K9 hero, and everyone’s favorite, a K9 demonstration that will be bigger and better than ever.
Run to Support a Worthy Cause
100% of the proceeds will benefit K9s United to help us support and honor K9 law enforcement officers who detect, protect and serve our communities by giving them the best equipment, amenities, and quality of life during and after their service, and memorializing those who gave the ultimate sacrifice in the line of duty.
This race is in honor of K9 Huk of Jacksonville Sheriff's Office! Huk was seriously wounded in the line of duty in 2022 during a deployment where officers were trying to apprehend felony suspects.
So be sure to sign up now before registration goes up, and thank you for participating in this much-anticipated event!
Ready, set, go!
