Signal Hill Rotary Mutt Run 5K
The Signal Hill Rotary Mutt Run is a beachside running and walking event held on March 20, 2027, that supports animal welfare. The course begins at the Granada Launch Ramp at Rosie's Dog Beach and follows the beach pedestrian path along the Long Beach shoreline toward the pier. Paid parking is available at the 54th & Claremont lot and the La Verne lot; the first hour is $2.
Race options include:
- 5k human running alone
- 5k human running with a dog
- 1k human running with a dog
An adoption event by Long Beach Animal Care Services is located at the finish line and continues into the post-race festival. Participation is limited to 400 entrants. Teams can be formed from family, friends, or co-workers.
Dogs of all breeds are welcome but must be leashed and remain on the pedestrian path at all times. Owners are responsible for cleaning up after their dogs and ensuring animals are well behaved and non-aggressive with people and other dogs. Participants may run or walk at their own pace with or without a dog.
All human participants receive t-shirts and custom medals. Translucent plaque trophies are awarded to the top three finishers. Seventy percent of proceeds support Long Beach Animal Care Services and thirty percent support the Signal Hill Rotary community project fund.
