Bluegrass Pug Run 5K
The Bluegrass Pug Run 5K is a charity running event held at Iroquois Park in Louisville, Kentucky, with both an in-person race and a virtual option. The event benefits Bluegrass Pug Rescue, whose mission includes rescuing and rehabilitating pugs, providing medical care and spay or neuter operations, and placing animals into permanent adoptive homes in Kentucky and nearby areas.
The course begins and finishes near the park amphitheater and follows paved pedestrian paths, allowing strollers on course. Dogs are welcome but must be on fixed-length leashes; retractable leashes are not permitted. The event is cupless, so attendees are expected to use their own water bottle, hydration pack, or cup. A course map and a GPX file are provided by the organizers. Packet pick-up is available on-site near the pavilion before the race.
Organizers request that attendees plan for parking by arriving early and carpooling when possible to reduce impact on park facilities. Registration details, fee information, and specific event options are provided by the organizers. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
