One of Langley’s most waggish events for people and their dogs, the PAWZ 5K/10K run/walk has something for everyone. This year is the third annual run which starts on Second Street on Memorial Day, Monday, May 30.

After several requests the organizers added a 10K race this year to engage those who wanted a longer run. You’re encouraged to bring two or four legged friends, the race is open to everyone, whether you want to run or walk, are young or old, have a dog or not.

The 5/K race begins at 9 a.m., 10K at 9:15 a.m. and the Kids Fun Run at 10:30 a.m.
The top 10 women, men and dogs all receive awards with random prizes given to dogs with feats as most drool, shortest legs, biggest eyes, most active tail.

Sponsored by Animal Hospital by the Sea and Langley Main Street Assoc. the event benefits Good Cheer Pet Food Bank and the Happy Hounds 4H Club. For more information, see the race course and to register go to www.pawzbythesea.com.
