Description

_ The 2018 Hound Hustle 10K, 5K & 1-mile Trot with Spot presented by Brunswick Forest Veterinary Hospital:

Online registration closes at 5:00 pm Friday, April 13th. You can still sign up Saturday, April 14th at New Balance of Wilmington from 11 am - 12:30 pm and at the Brunswick Forest vet hospital from 2:30 - 3:30 pm. You can also signup race morning. . 

The race takes place on picturesque courses in the beautiful Brunswick Forest community. The whole event is pet friendly but is also set up with the 10K starting five minutes before the 5K since most dogs participate in the 5K or 1-mile Trot with Spot. The 5K has well behaved pooches who start near the back of the pack so if your dog is ready to go 3.1 miles then get in there!

 

NO DOG, NO PROBLEM!! With the 10K starting 5 minutes before the 5K runners without pets will still get to run a serious 10K if that's your thing. The 1-mile starts 20 minutes before the 5K so all runners get to see the awesome start and finish with some of the cutest dogs and best costumes ever. 

 

10K & 5K Awards: Customized running medals go 2-deep in age groups. Winner awards are Bobble Head running trophies going 3-deep overall in the 5K and 3-deep in open and masters in the 10K. All kids in the 1-mile get an award.

 

The race is stroller and walker friendly!

 

T-Shirts: 

Shirts are very nice, gender specific Next Level tech shirts. The ladies shirts run one size small so ladies, select your size accordingly. NOTE: If you are female and want a male shirt size just select one of the sizes that does not say "female". That will get you a male cut/sized shirt. 

Shirts are guaranteed through April 10th. We'll order extra but to be sure sign up before the 10th to guarantee your shirt.

 

 

10K Early Start: For walkers or run/walkers doing greater than a 1:20 10K there is an early start (20) minutes before the regular 10K start. This allows walkers and run/walkers to enjoy the race and finish about the same time as most other runners. Early starters get the same shirts and cover the same course as everyone else. Your results will be displayed in your age group, Note that the 1-mile Trot with Spot "takes off" with the 10K early start so runners get to cheer on the early starters and see the owners and pooches finish the 1 mile event - fun for everyone!
