June 15th was a beautiful day for the 5th annual Furry 5K Run/Walk. Race Director Sandy Duncan once again provided a great course set-up for the event. Missouri Running Company opened their doors early and Bryan Kelpe and his crew again provided course marshals and set up the Cape Road Runner finish chute for the participants.
It was definitely a day for the dogs! Well over 50 people brought their pets out to provide a great atmosphere for the race and Busch Pet Supply provided the dogs with water and other amenities before, during and after the race.
The course was challenging but once the participants climbed the first mile's three hills through the residential area the remaining portion of the race flattened out nicely for a fast finish.
The runners and walkers were able to view their one mile split as well as their elapsed finishing time thanks to the RoadRunner's timing clock. Many people came out to support the cause and provided needed encouragement to both the runners/walkers as well as the stars of the day "the dogs".
Overall winners of the 5K run were Laura Sheridan and Kevin Hammes.
