The National Rescue Dog Day 10k is a scenic running event taking place at Bluemont Park in Arlington, Virginia. Participants can enjoy a flat, out-and-back course while supporting the Lost Dog & Cat Rescue Foundation, which has saved over 40,000 homeless pets since 2001. Runners receive a finisher’s medal, a technical event shirt, and chip timing.

The event also offers a virtual race option for those unable to attend in person. Awards are given to the top finishers in various categories, and there are multiple water stations along the course.
