Super Sunday 5K And 2K Pup Strut

Get ready to kick off your Super Bowl Sunday in a uniquely active way at the SUPER SUNDAY 5K AND 2K PUP STRUT on March 1, 2026, in picturesque Franklin Lakes, NJ. This event is designed for all fitness levels, inviting participants to run, jog, or walk their way through the charming town course. Expect a "relaxed stroll through town", making it perfect for those seeking a fun and scenic outing rather than a challenging elevation profile. Typical race day conditions in early March offer highs around 45°F and lows around 28°F, with a low 12% chance of precipitation, and the event runs "rain, snow, or shine".

What truly sets the Super Sunday event apart is its festive, pet-friendly atmosphere. The 2K Pup Strut invites you to leash up your "four-legged MVP" for a camaraderie-filled walk, culminating in a special doggie donut at the finish line for your canine companion. All human finishers of both the 5K and 2K will receive a one-of-a-kind medal and a tasty post-race treat to fuel up before the big game celebrations. With DJ Steve providing high-energy tunes for a "Game-Day Warm-Up" and no time awards given, the focus is squarely on enjoyment, fitness, and furry friends.

The race starts and finishes at 1 Vichiconti Way, Franklin Lakes, NJ, also known as the Franklin Lakes Recreation or Community Center. While there won't be on-course water stops, Culligan Water will be readily available at the finish line to ensure you and your pup stay hydrated. This is more than just a race; it’s a vibrant community gathering celebrating fitness, fun, and the joy of shared activity before the ultimate Sunday showdown.
