Description

Tails, Trails & Ales is a trail running event for people and pups.

Hosted by Nooga Paws, Bad Beard Events, and Reflection Riding, and presented by Mountain View Auto Group, the event takes place Saturday, November 7th at Reflection Riding in Chattanooga.

Participants can choose from three distances:

5K Trail Run – 10:00 a.m.
10K Trail Run – 10:00 a.m.
1-Mile Pup Dash – 11:30 a.m. (untimed fun run)

All participants must run or walk with a dog. One dog is allowed per participant, and dogs must be kept on a leash no longer than 6 feet.

The 5K and 10K courses take runners through the trails at Reflection Riding, while the Pup Dash offers a shorter, relaxed option for anyone looking for a fun mile with their dog.

After the run, stick around for beer, food, local vendors, and time to hang out with other runners and dog owners. Human participants will receive race swag, and every participating dog will receive a bandana.

This is a cupless event, so participants should bring their own hydration bottle or cup. Water bowls will be available for dogs.

The event runs from 10:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m.
