I usually only run ultras these days, but I came across an email from Big Blue Adventure Races mentioning the Tail Wagger 1-miler and 5k.
This was such a well-put-together event on a beautiful Tahoe mountain coarse with the perfect staging area. The unique Tail Wagger design on the tech shirt and finishers medal made them things that I will cherish. The water stations and dog pools for the dogs were great, especially since it was the first hot day many of us had run in. The race announcer and race director are both incredibly personable and have great energy for a family/ pet-friendly event like this. I usually don’t repeat races because there are so many amazing places to race all over the country, but this is one I would love to repeat again and again.
