About this race

Please join us for the 5th annual Bad Dog 5000 this July 18 at the Carry-it Party Shop in Ottawa, Ohio. This race was founded to honor 2 very special ladies, Sam and Carol. 100% of the proceeds got to the Putnam County CAP. This amazing organization helps with expenses for people going through treatment for cancer. 

This year will be a night race with registration opening up at 6pm, and race beginning at 7:15pm. We also upgrade the prizes to customized beer glasses for the winners, and as always we have a SICK design for the T-shirts this year! 

You will want to stick around for the after party too! Drink tokens for every runner, good for alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages. We will also have a 50/50 raffle that night as well. 


This is a family friendly event. Bring the kids and run, jog, walk, bike, or rollerblade. We don’t care, everyone is welcome!
