let’s go for a run

Alaska Airlines Dawg Dash will adhere to UW campus policies regarding masks and social distancing. A face covering is not currently required outdoors regardless of vaccination status. However, a face covering is encouraged for non-vaccinated individuals when in outdoor crowded settings and settings where there is a decreased ability to consistently maintain a physical distance between others.

Avoid the lines on race day! Pick up your packet early at University Book Store on the Ave. Packets will be available at the following dates and times:

• Friday, Oct. 7 | 2–6 p.m.
• Saturday, Oct. 8 | 10 a.m.–4 p.m.

You can also pick up your packet at the race. Please arrive at least 45 minutes early to make sure you have time to receive your materials.

“Run Anywhere” online race participants will receive their materials by mail before the event. Run Anywhere registration will close Sept. 16 to ensure timely delivery of race materials. Please make sure your shipping address is accurate when you register.

We are finalizing the Alaska Airlines Dawg Dash 5K and 10K course maps. As soon as they’re ready, we will post them on this page.

To avoid traffic and parking difficulties, we recommend taking public transit to campus if possible. It’s a great opportunity to explore the University District, or jump off at Husky Stadium and enjoy a pre-Dash stroll up Rainier Vista. Light rail service is available from 6 a.m. to midnight on Sundays. Plan your trip.

Free parking is available in the Central Plaza Garage under Red Square (enter from 15th Ave. NE) and other lots across campus.
