THe Dunedin Dog n' Suds Summer 5K At HOB Brewing Company In Downtown Dunedin

Lace up your running shoes and leash up your furry friends for the Dunedin Dog n' Suds Summer 5K, a refreshing and festive run/walk set for Saturday, August 22, 2026, in beautiful Dunedin, FL. This 3.1-mile event kicks off at 8:30 AM from the lively HOB Brewing Company, a two-story beer park venue that serves as both the start and finish line. Runners and walkers, including those with dogs and strollers (kindly asked to start at the back), will enjoy a fully paved course along the scenic Pinellas Trail, offering a flat and enjoyable experience for all paces.

What truly sets this 5K apart is its wonderfully laid-back, community-focused atmosphere. It's less about setting a personal best and more about enjoying the vibrant surroundings and good company. Participants are encouraged to bring their own hydration to stay comfortable, especially given typical race day conditions in late August, which see highs around 91°F and lows around 77°F with a 30% chance of precipitation. After crossing the finish line, every participant receives a dazzling finisher's medal, a stylish RUN727 promotional t-shirt, and complimentary craft beer, making the post-race party at HOB Brewing a much-anticipated celebration.

With check-in starting at 7:45 AM, the early start aims to beat the summer heat, ensuring a more pleasant experience. Free parking is available at the Artisan parking garage with a short walk along the Pinellas Trail to the venue, which offers a shaded space for both packet pickup and the lively post-race festivities. This event consistently draws a "light-hearted group of non-competitive runners and walkers" and is known to sell out, so securing your spot early is highly recommended for a memorable summer morning of fun, fitness, and fantastic brews.
