Furry Friends 5K - Jefferson

We are looking forward to seeing YOU at the annual Furry Friends 5K. Join the race to help homeless pets at the Humane Society of Jefferson County’s 11th Annual Furry Friends 5K Run/Walk. What can you expect?  A safe, tail-wagging experience that is fun for everyone! This family- and dog-friendly event will take place at the Jefferson County Fair Park with a beautiful flat scenic course that ensures first time walkers and runners can comfortably participate alongside the more serious runners.  Along with the race, the day will feature dog lure and agility courses, bobbing for tennis balls, many area vendors, food trucks, 50/50 and other thrilling raffles, and music!  But wait.... we have more.

In 2024, The HSJC is expending the excitement with the first ever KidK Obstacle Run/Walk!

- All participants will get a medal.  There will not be an award ceremony for the KidK Run/Walk.
