Description

**All proceeds benefit Reflection Riding**

Get ready for a trail day designed for you and your four-legged best friend, hosted by Nooga Paws, Bad Beard Events, Reflection Riding, and presented by Mountain View Auto Group, with sponsorship from Tucker Build, Club Pilates, Black Creek Chattanooga, Build Sage Design, and Fleet Feet. Tails, Trails & Ales is a unique outdoor experience where dog lovers can come together to run, hike, and celebrate all things canine in one of Chattanooga’s most beautiful natural settings.

Choose from a 1-mile Pup Dash, 5K, or 10K trail run and explore scenic routes side-by-side with your dog. Whether you’re racing for time or strolling for fun, this event is about movement, connection, and enjoying the outdoors together. Expect dog-friendly aid stations, stunning scenery, and lots of fun.

Cross the finish line and jump right into the celebration—where the Ales are waiting. Relax with local craft beer, food, and browse pet-friendly vendors. Every human finisher receives race swag, and every pup gets a bandana—because they earned it too.
This event aims to:
• Promote fun, fitness, and human-dog bonding
• Support local businesses and artisans
• Celebrate Chattanooga’s outdoor spirit
• Create a signature community event for years to come
Timed and untimed options are available. One dog per participant. 6-ft leashes required.
Join us for an unforgettable day on the trails—because adventures are better with a dog by your side.

***Event length is 3 hours, from 10:00-1p. It is a cupless event. Dog bowls will be provided. To participate, you must have a dog. The pup dash is a 1-mile fun run.***
