Run with the Dogs

The Decatur Bulldog Boosters invite runners, walkers and the dog-loving public to join in the 7th annual "Run With The Dogs."  Registration begins at 8:00am.  All proceeds go to funding the uniforms, equipment, and awards for our student-athletes (the "Bulldogs") at Decatur High and Renfroe Middle School.

The event features a 5K (3.1 mile) course where participants can run or walk with (or without) their dogs.  T-shirts, awards and treats will be available to participants as well as a sporty "race"-kerchief for canine companions.  First-place male and female winners will each get a pair of Mizuno running shoes.

Online registration is available here. A registration form can be downloaded here.  Registration is limited to the first 500 entries.  Any questions can be forwarded to Bill Ainslie.
