Fast and Furriest 5k and pet fest

The Wiggles and Wags Fast and Furriest 5K is Tempe's premier dog-friendly race and pet festival, created to become an annual signature community event. Hosted at Kiwanis Park, the event features a professionally timed 5K, a 1-mile fun run, and the highly anticipated "Fastest Breed in Tempe" dog dash championships.
Designed as both a competitive athletic event and a large-scale community pet celebration, Fast and Furriest brings together runners, families, pet owners, rescue organizations, and local businesses for a high-energy morning experience. Following the races, attendees transition into an interactive pet festival featuring vendors, adoption partners, games, and live award ceremonies.
