Man’s Best Friend Virtual Race

WHEN

Saturday, December 4th to 12th

WHERE

Virtually Anywhere You Want!

What’s better than ringing in the holiday season with Race 13.1 Durham? Ringing it in with a run with your doggo! 

Grab your fur-baby and join us for a jolly run in the Man’s Best Friend Virtual Race. A one-mile run, walk or hike that celebrates your favorite four-legged companion while helping other furry friends find a forever home.

Through our partnership with Saving Grace, we’ll donate 10% of all registrations to help them provide medical care, housing & forever homes for homeless animals in NC. Who knows? You might have another fur-baby to celebrate the holidays with by the end of the run.

You can take on Man’s Best Friend Virtual Race as your main run this holiday season or add it to your existing Race 13.1 Durham Registration to act as a virtual cool-down following your half marathon, 10k or 5k run. Click here to add Man’s Best Friend Virtual Race to your registration!

Each com-paw-titor will receive the following:

  • A 2″ Finisher Medal (doubles as a tree ornament)

Charity Partner: Saving Grace

Saving Grace is a private shelter that serves homeless animals across the rural part of NC and beyond. As a non-profit, Saving Grace relies solely on donations to provide this much needed medical care and housing in order to make adoption possible for these many animals. We will be donating 10% of all registrations to Saving Grace, but we encourage you, if possible, to donate during your registration.
