Join us Saturday,August 22, 2026, at 8:30 am for our Dog n's Suds SUMMER 5K At Dunedin House of Beer HOB Brewing Company at 941 Huntley Avenue, Dunedin, FL 34698. This is the perfect run/walk for dog
lovers and beer lovers who come together in DOGEDEN for a great summer 5K. This is the 2 story beer park venue located directly along the Pinellas Trail aka Dunedin's TREASURE Venue!
All runners and walkers will celebrate their 5K with free craft beer, an awesome finisher's medal, a RUN727 promotional t-shirt, top finisher awards, timed 3.1 mile (5K) distance run or walk, post race party, and a fully paved and electronically timed 5K at the best venue for running and drinking with great people. This is a family friendly event. We do ask that if you are running with your dog or a stroller, please start toward the back of the pack at the start line so passing is safe for our fur babies and tiny humans.
An email will be sent to ALL registrants the day before the race which will include your bib number assignment along with your waiver to participate on event morning. For those travelling or without a printer we will have waivers on site but bringing it with you moves check in much more quickly. Occasionally we have a few bad email addresses so if you don’t receive the final email by 4 pm the day before the race please text your email address to 727-CAN-RACE (727-226-7223) and we’ll get all the information you need for a great summer 5K at HOB Brewing Co.
Parking is FREE at the Artisan parking garage at 356 Monroe Street, Dunedin, FL 34698. After you park walk toward the venue using the Pinellas Trail. Check in is RACE MORNING ONLY beginning at 7:45 a.m. We'll get you started right on time at 8:30 a.m. so that we can beat the heat. You can bring your own hydration and snacks as we want you fully comfortable and safe. The HOB provides and awesome shaded space for our check in and post race party so bring the whole neighborhood. This ONE IS SO MUCH FUN! Let's go shark lovers. We will have a bag check zone if you don’t want to go back to your car. This is a family environment with a great party zone on site.
We will have a table at the finish line shoot for first 15 males and first 15 females in each distance so be sure to grab one if they are still there when you finish your distance. The RaceSplitter Timing system will be used to time and score the race but results ARE purposely not posted at the venue so we can maintain our light hearted group of non-competitive runners and walkers. You can find your finish time in overall results later in the afternoon at www.727CanRace.com We also bring additional top finisher’s frames for seniors and our younger runners so if you had an exceptional day (any age) let Suzanne know at the microphone and we’ll award you for your performance! Age group awards slow down the day and we have used this method the last 9 years and it works out BEAUTIFULLY for the laid back group of runners we attract. 727CanRace is the number one search for running events!
After the post race party we encourage you to walk downtown to one of our excellent food establishments that have made this water front commuitty of downtown Dunedin famous. We hope each of you will fall in love as we have, with it's restaurants, 13 breweries, and amazing marina district. Dunedin is also home to the famous Honeymoon island State Park so make a day of it if you can. Thanks for joining us and we look forward to seeing you race morning!
Welcome to summer running in Dunedin!~ This is a race that WILL SELL OUT so register early as prices rise to slow down registration numbers the closer we get to event day. There is NO race day registration on site.

No Dog Policy for Our 5K Races
We love dogs and understand they are part of the family, but unfortunately, we cannot permit them to participate in our 5K races. This policy is in place because our event insurance does not cover the participation of dogs, and we must prioritize the safety and well-being of all participants, both human and canine.
Key Points of the Policy:
No Dogs Allowed on the Course: For safety and liability reasons, dogs are not permitted to accompany runners or walkers during the race.
Spectator Pets: Well-behaved and leashed dogs are welcome to spectate along the sidelines, provided they remain under control and do not enter the race course.
Service Animals: Registered service animals are, of course, an exception to this rule, as they are covered under legal protections.
Alternative Participation Options: If you’re looking for a dog-friendly race experience, please let us know, and we can share recommendations for other events in the area that welcome canine companions.
Thank you for your understanding and cooperation in helping us maintain a safe and enjoyable race for everyone involved!

LABOR DAY TRIPLE: August 30, August 31, and September 1, 2025 (Labor Day Weekend)
PLACE: Cady Way Park (Trailhead), 2529 Cady Way, Winter Park, FL 32792
WHAT: Labor Day Triple--50K, Marathon, Half
marathon, 10K, and 5K each day
(Five distance for three days. Yes, people do run three days consecutively)
START TIMES: Marathon and 50K -- 5:00 am; Half Marathon -- 5:10 am; 5K and 10K -- 6:00 am
TIME LIMIT: 9 hours (or so)
PARKING: Cady Way Park. GPS coordinates: N 28.59458, W -081.31670. Also, there is an overflow
parking lot nearby and a school across the street. All locations are convenient.
WARNING: Before you register, Read everything below. Here are the main points:
Not chip-timed. We are hand-timed. Let us know when you finish.
Courses not certified. Not designed for speed. NOT a Boston qualifier.
No age group awards, no t-shirts, no bling.
Cupless—bring your own bottle.
For 50K, marathon and half marathon you’ll need a light
Now, if you haven’t tuned out yet, be advised these events are no frills, low-key, casual, fun events. GREAT for first timers, maybe not so great for a PR. This is not a certified or sanctioned course—meaning, among other thing, NOT a Boston qualifier. Don’t expect much and maybe you won’t be disappointed.
WHAT YOU DON’T GET: t-shirt, hat, socks, or any other apparel, great bling (actually, any bling), cute reusable race bag, age group awards, spectators lining the course, crowds cheering you in, hearty food at the finish, exciting music, and a party afterward, all on a certified course. There are plenty of other events out there for you.
WHAT YOU DO GET: low entry fees, courses that are guaranteed not short, a simple finisher’s medal, a generous time limit, and a published finish time. But isn’t that all you really need? What do you do with all that other stuff anyway? You know you want to sign up. Really, where else can you run a marathon for $65?
COURSES: The courses are NOT certified--no Boston qualifier here. The courses are lap courses, meaning that you’ll do a double out-and-back multiple times. Which means you’ll see other runners going and coming. Not as boring as it might sound. In fact, many people come to prefer this course design. The paved, urban run/bike trail is flat and largely shaded. This is an open course, and includes two street crossings each lap. You are responsible for crossing safely. See Detailed Course Descriptions above for more details.
The marathon and half marathon lap is approximately 2.2 miles. The full is twelve laps and the half is six laps. The 5K and 10K lap is approximately 1.55 miles—two laps for the 5K and four laps for the 10K. The 50K is fourteen marathon laps, with two small laps added at the end.
Turn arounds for each distance will be clearly marked. Rubber bands will be available to help you keep track of your laps.
For more details and a crude course map, see Detailed Course Description above.
FINISH: When you finish, be sure to ring the bell and make sure the timer knows you are finished. Otherwise, you won't get an accurate time. Remember we are hand-timed.
AID STATION: The aid station is at the start/finish of the loop course, which you will pass two times each lap. We will provide plenty of water, Gatorade, and soda, along with a variety of sweet and salty snacks. This is a cupless race. Bring your own hydration device—water bottle, hydration belt/pack.
HEAT: Florida is typically hot and humid. We will provide ice for your water/Gatorade, hat, water bottle, etc. We will also have ice water in a bucket for you to dip your hat, cooling towel, etc. We will also have pickles, olives, and pickle juice, as well as a variety of salty snacks.
LIGHT: Marathoners, 50Kers, and half marathoners will need a light for the first couple of hours. It won’t get light until around 6:40.
BATHROOMS: The bathrooms are a little walk from the start/finish, but you’ll pass them during each lap.
DROP BAG: The start/finish is in a small pavilion, where you may leave a drop bag.
If you are still undecided (congratulations for reading this far), and you want to know what to expect, we won’t likely have world class athletes based on speed, but we will likely have world class athletes based on numbers of marathon completed. We have had at least five people who are at the top of the Mega Marathon List. Think four-digit numbers. Just imagine the stories!
VOLUNTEERS: We always need volunteers. Each volunteer day earns one free race entry for a long distance (50K, marathon, half marathon), or two free entries for a short distance (5K or 10K). Contact Bettie at [email protected]. You may use the free entry yourself or for someone else.
