2007 Dawg Dash

Thanks to all those who took part in the 2007 Dawg Dash! Browse through our Dawg Dash photos or get race results and a link to individual photos on dawgdash.com.

The 22nd Annual Dawg Dash is coming up on Sunday, October 14, 2007! It's a great opportunity for you to get involved.

Here's why.

Get Healthy: This may seem obvious, but there's more to it. If you're at UW, you or someone in your department can host a training run or walk around campus.

Also, you can log all your training and day of race miles into the Washington State Governor's Health Bowl. There are lots of great prizes just for participating, and if the UW can make it to the top of the Healthiest Business category, then there are even more prizes in store for participants.

Raise money for student scholarships: Each year, the Dawg Dash raises at least $10,000 for scholarships for UW students.

Community Building: Want to hang out with the rest of the folks in your office "off the clock"? How about assembling a Dawg Dash team. You can train together, run or walk together, even celebrate together.

Get a neat shirt: Every participant gets a cool long-sleeved 100% cotton T-shirt to commemorate the day.

Prizes: Participants are eligible for a host of prizes including gift certificates at running stores, souvenir photos and much more.

Bragging Rights: Fastest runner? Largest team? Go for it!

To Register: Go to www.DawgDash.com.

Or, stop by one of our planned fit clinic/registration events on campus. Road Runner Sports, presenting sponsor of Dawg Dash, will be on hand to assess your running/walking style and make recommendations for improvement.

Health Sciences Lobby – Thursday, October 4 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.
