Runners participate in the Mighty Dog 5K/10K Run in Granite Bay, an event held in April each year and organized by TBF Racing.
Running and walking is fun with a friend, especially our four-legged ones! This calendar lists upcoming running, walking and related events in Northern California that are dog-oriented. While many races allow well behaved dogs; the below events have a specific division for running/walking with a dog. 🐾
For a full list of events in Northern California, please visit our regional NorCal running calendar here.
Race Directors: To submit a run/walk event to be listed on this calendar, please email us the details here.

Congrats to all the Turkey Trotters who joined us in Davis today! What a wonderful morning for running, walking, and dog jogging 🐾 Results are posted at results.changeofpace.com.

🐶 Our annual 'Dog Jog' 2 Mile Run or Walk will be held at the #DavisTurkeyTrot on Sat. 11/20. Proceeds benefit the @yolo_spca. Bring your furry four legged friend and join the fun!
2 Mile #dogjog start is 8:40 a.m.
We get this question a lot: older pups (or those not used to the distance) are welcome to ride in dog strollers or wagons.
Also: a dog is not required to participate in this division! There are many people who run or walk the 2 Mile without a dog each year.
