Run the Runway and Mutt the Strut 5K
A huge thank you to everyone who joined us for the Run the Runway & Mutt Strut 5K at Double Eagle II Airport! From runners and walkers to our four-legged friends, food trucks, volunteers, and partners like Animal Welfare and the Experimental Aviation Association (EAA)—you made this event unforgettable.
We loved seeing the community come together to celebrate fitness, fun, and furry companions right on the runway. Your energy and support help make events like this possible, and we are so grateful for each and every one of you.
✨ Mark your calendars now—Run the Runway & Mutt Strut will return in Fall 2026! We’re already planning an even bigger event and can’t wait to see you (and your pups) back on the runway.
