Muddy Paws 5k, 5 Mile & 10 Mile – Peninsula, OH 2026

NEW 5k for 2026! Get ready for an exhilarating adventure at the Muddy Paws 5k, 5 Mile & 10 Mile trail race, set among the trails of the picturesque Kendall Lake area of the Cuyahoga Valley National Park. Lace up your shoes and prepare to tackle the NEW 5k, complete one loop for the 5 miler, or challenge yourself with two loops for the 10 miler. Whether you walk or run, this race has an option perfectly suited to your pace. Since its inception in 2005 by WRR partner Vince Rucci, Muddy Paws has become a beloved event. Vince's passion for running with his rescue dogs inspired this race, and it's only fitting that it supports the Humane Society of Summit County. The M.A.C. (Mobile Adoption Center) will be at Pine Hollow on race day from 8:00am-11:00am—you might just discover a new trail partner to join you on future adventures!
