Join us for another tail-wagging good time as runners, walkers, and their four-legged friends hit the course together to support the Franklin County Animal Shelter. After rave reviews from last year, we’re excited to bring back our new and improved route — a scenic and fun path that everyone loved!

Whether you’re running for time or strolling for fun, it’s all about getting active, connecting with fellow animal lovers, and helping pets in need find their forever homes.

Learn more about the host city, Rocky Mount.
Rocky Mount is a city in North Carolina. Its dawning days were more or less centered around cotton mills in the early 19th century, though it was settled as early as the 1700s by Europeans. Eventually tobacco became the prized crop and warehouses and rail stations sprung up to export this commodity. Rocky Mount, though with a reputation tarnished somewhat by crime and urban decay, is the birthplace of Mike Tyson and Hardee's fast food restaurants and where Jim Thorpe debuted with the Rocky Mountain Railroaders and Jack Kerouac wrote parts of "The Dharma Bums" during his visits there.
