Every April, more than 500 people and their pups pack Tower Grove Park for a morning of fast-paced fun that raises money for homeless pets. The Fast and the Furriest 5K Run and 1-Mile Walk offers participants both a professionally-timed race as well as the opportunity to take a leisurely stroll through the beautiful park.

This year, the APA’s new Director of Education, longtime KSDK anchor Jennifer Blome, will lead the 1-Mile Walk and head up the children’s activity area. More than a dozen vendor booths, including Sports Authority, New Balance and Kennelwood, will be on site offering visitors a variety of goods and services, and Destination Desserts food truck will be satisfying everyone’s sweet tooth.

Stop by the APA (1705 S. Hanley Rd.) between now and Saturday at 5:00 p.m. to get signed up, or just register at the event. Signup starts Sunday at 7:45 a.m. at the Sons of Rest Pavilion in Tower Grove Park. The 5K race begins at 9:00 am with the 1-mile walk starting shortly after that. Bring the whole family out for the furriest race in town! We’ll see you at the start line!
