Registration closes Saturday February 24rd, No event day registration.
Can you believe that on February 25, 2024, it will be the 10th celebration of RunGo's annual Dash for Dogs, the fundraiser for BC and Alberta Guide Dogs? We've raised over $150,000 through these years, and it's an amazing local event in Stanley Park, Vancouver. Join us for a 2k, 5k, or 10k run or walk, and enjoy pancakes, prizes, puppies, good tunes, blindfolded walks with guide dogs, and more!
This is a race for people – you don't need a dog to run.
The RunGo Dash for Dogs course follows some of the most scenic trails and paths of Stanley Park.
Guide dogs and good dogs are welcome, dogs must be on leash and under control at all times for the safety of the working guide dogs.

Virtual Run Closed
If you cannot attend the event in Vancouver, you can still sign up to run virtually, help us raise money, and make a difference no matter where you live. On February 25 (or any day you choose), enjoy a run and optionally send us a photo. Try the RunGo iPhone app feature to overlay your run route and stats to an image or map. Bonus: draw and follow a route shape inspired by Dash for Dogs, like a puppy or a pancake, and we’ll honour the most creative one sent in! *Note: this does not give you access to the Vancouver Event; you must register as a 2k, 5k, or 10k if you want to attend.*
