K9K Race – Grand Rapids, MI 2026

NEW FOR 2026 - CREATE A TEAM! Bring friends, coworkers, church groups, and law enforcement families. Register together, run together, and invite others to join your team with one simple link. See current teams or create one here . The K9K is a fun, family-friendly community run held at Riverside Park - created in memory of Officer Andy and the life of service he lived. Choose the 3K run/walk or the 9K run . Both courses are beautiful, relaxed, and welcoming. Dogs are encouraged to join (on leash), but you don’t need a dog to participate - everyone is welcome. Proceeds from the K9K help support law enforcement employees and their families , especially during times of hardship, loss, or unexpected need. When you register, you’re doing more than signing up for a race - you’re helping care for the people who care for our communities. Come enjoy a meaningful morning with great people, great shirts, and a fun post-race celebration. Run for fun. Bring your dog. Run to support those who serve.
