Vanessa Junkin's thoughts:

I always enjoy the Dogfish Dash! This was the race’s first year back in-person since 2019. I ran it the day after completing 40.3 miles at the 24-hour Pemberton 24 event, so I did not race it — just participated as if it were a fun run/walk.

The course was 3.8 miles this year — a new distance. I thought the course was more scenic than in the past. I enjoyed the views and a rail trail section. The course starts and ends at Dogfish Head Craft Brewery. It’s pretty flat, with a few hills that are noticeable to someone from a flat area (like I am).

I always like the unique swag at this race. I’m using the tote bag now (I’m writing this from the airport), and I also got a shirt and reusable water bottle. Two beers and a small food buffet are also included (the number of beers has gone down over the years — from four, then three beers).

There isn’t enough room for everyone to park at the brewery, but I was able to park pretty close by at a local school. Parking is free.

You do have to pick up your packet before race day. I couldn’t make it on the offered days, so thankfully a friend was able to get mine.

It’s a fun event and definitely a must-run for Dogfish Head fans! Registration usually opens in April and sells out quickly.
