Float Dodger 5K - Seattle, July 18, 2026
The Float Dodger 5K is a community road run held along California Ave SW in Seattle. The event course uses a main commercial street normally reserved for vehicles and runs through a parade route associated with the West Seattle Summer Parade. Participants pass parade floats and are cheered along the route by spectators.
The event program includes a 5K race and a Free Kids Dash for younger participants. The finish line features a root beer float for finishers. The event takes place at 3000 California Ave SW, Seattle, WA 98116.
Organizers state that all race proceeds benefit the West Seattle Food Bank; the listing specifies that one hundred percent of proceeds go to this nonprofit. The atmosphere is presented as a community street event tied to the local summer parade, combining a timed 5K with a short, free children’s dash and post-race refreshments.
