Dogfish Dash

Our off-centered race through Milton is back for another incredible year! Join us for our 18th annual Dogfish Dash on Sunday, Sept. 28th! This year, all proceeds will go to our friends from Sussex County Land Trust, and though it’s the same race day you know and love, including yet another Recycled Costume Contest, there will also be some newness, like a shorter, walking ‘race’ for hoomans and their pups and a race route Cheer Squad!

The Dogfish Dash is back — and it’s one of our favorite off-centered community events of the year! Hosted at Dogfish Head’s Milton Brewery, this  5K-ish race takes runners and walkers through the charming streets of Milton, with beautiful natural views along the way. New this year: a 3K walk option, perfect for participants with pups or those who prefer a more relaxed pace!

All proceeds benefit the Sussex County Land Trust, helping protect and preserve open space right here in our community.

What to Expect:
 A fun-filled morning with post-race food & Dogfish brews (21+)
 A Recycled Costume Contest — get creative and win prizes!
 Race swag: custom t-shirt, running belt & beverage tickets
 Opportunities to give back with Sneakers4Good donations and a pre-race craft night
