Disclaimer: I received a free entry to K9sUnited 9K virtual race as part of being a BibRave Pro. Learn more about becoming a BibRave Pro (ambassador), and check out BibRave.com to review, find, and write race reviews! Is there anything better than running for a reason? I find it hard to think so. That's why I just registered for another canine-related race. This race is the K9s United 9K on December 1, 2018 in Apopka, Florida. The 501c3 non-profit K9s United was established after Debbie Johnson heard of the tragic death of a local K9 officer. The races help raise money to provide:
K9s United supplements K9 unit agencies that have more needs than budget. Each agency is different, but budget constraints mean there are always needs.

That way, you can run your distance wherever you are and still support the K9s. Race Pricing ScheduleRunners and walkers are welcome at all distances. Check out the prices below.
