Description
Please join us for the 11th annual Fast and the Furriest 5K Run/Walk on Saturday, April 26th at 9 am on Colorado State University's Campus Oval. 

The Fast and the Furriest 5K is a unique family-friendly event for individuals and their furry friends of all ages and abilities. Don't have a furry friend to bring? That's OK! This race is open to everyone!

The Fast and the Furriest 5k is a USA Track and Field sanctioned event and will feature chip timing on a certified course, doggie demos, awards, and giveaways. Kids will get to participate in fun activities, such as the 1K fun-run featuring music, face painting and more!

Registration is now open! All participants will receive an original T-shirt and are entered to win several great race-day giveaways!

The event is organized by students in the Professional Veterinary Medicine (PVM) program in the College of Veterinary Medicine and Biomedical Sciences at CSU. 

Proceeds for the Fast and the Furriest 5K benefit animals in need of emergency or life-saving treatments through the Companion Care Fund at CSU's Veterinary Teaching Hospital. This fund helps community members with financial need pay for procedures performed at the VTH that they would otherwise not be able to afford. A smaller portion of the proceeds will also help your local community by providing for scholarships through the PVM Class of 2015 and 2017 Scholarship Fund.
